Audi-Sport MTBers - Show us your hacks

[Oranoco]

Used to love it years ago and a small mishap meant getting it out again.

Saddly a sticky fingered inbred pinched the Cook Bros cranks I had on it Mainly XT/XTR, wheels handbuilt by me.

A little work was needed as the MAG-21 seals had failed.

Bike was run until the end of the Summer like this until I used my filming money to buy this

And as it's sitting now

Let's see yours

 

[dubdemand]

Here's mine, bought last summer only to discover a young family doesn't allow as much time for a thrash as I would have liked... loads of plans for some local and further a field riding now the weather is improving again (yes I am a wimp and easily put off by the cold and wet lol).

[Ninjatrol]

Here is mine, bought 4 months ago to get fit and lose weight used once, enough said

 

[quattrojames]

There's an existing thread on this already, but last time I linked to it I got flamed so I won't bother lol

I bought my Cannondale Trail SL2 29 in 2011 and these are the pictures I took on day one!

I've since added these:

And these:

And this for the winter:

Along with some Bontrager Mud-X tyres, which are fantastic and allow me to do this: (sort of)

Love the Stumpjumper mate Superkarl, your bikes win this thread already!

Here's my steed. It's a GT Zasker Race (tiny frame yes, but I was a BMXer for years). Hope discs, Sun/Ringle Equalizer wheels, 24/7 stem, 9sp-only. Has a 24" rear wheel, 26" front. It's more of a jump bike but it's being drafted in to a 150 mile jaunt to Windermere in May which will be fun. The Schwalbe Tabletop tyres howl and give huge lean angles on the road. Need to drill the seatpost bolt out as it's rounded off and fit the new inner tube to the rear. Got a torn thigh muscle so I'm in no hurry to sort it out yet, shame as the weather is getting better every day.

Here's mine the day I got it a couple years ago,10 minutes later all the reflectors were off

Haven't seen much action tbh,bit of a fair weather biker these days,and shifts and kids tend to get in the way.
Got few rest days off work soon so hopefully get a few miles done,even if its down the local canal towpath,my fitness is non-existent just now.
Scuse the untidy garden behind it,an ongoing project....

 

[205man]

here's my 2 first my everyday thrash around a Garry fisher GED

and my specialized fsr xc, had few more upgrades since this photo, with new mavic rims & hubs, new cranks, spd pedals, and floating discs front and rear

 

[Cozza McA]

Last summer time.

 

[Oranoco]

There's a few of us into the bikes then

 

[Greeny233]

Here's my little green machine

Wolftrax at Lagan.

Glentress

It cost more than some of my motorbikes and needs me to propel it along but it makes mince meat of descents and climbs like a hard tail. Love it.

 

[superkarl]

that moonraker is freaking awesome!

and glentress and innerleithen are my favourite spots, despite them being nearly 200miles away

 

[JudderMan]

My mate keeps on banging on about Glentress, need to go up there with him sometime. Hamsterly Forest and Chopwell Woods are my locals and damn hard work.

 

[ajax1976]

Carbon 25th anniversary Stumpjumper, Mavic wheels, Pace factory edition carbon forks. Its taken a lot of Ebay wheeling and dealing to get it to where it is but really happy with it.

 

[Oranoco]

Skewing off slightly but can anybody recomend a decent bike rack for the back of my B5 saloon?

 

[markos72]

Post reflector removal-looks much better

 

[205man]

oranoco I've got one that fits perfect on mine and hold 3 bikes but I only use it for 2 as gives each bike bit more room. I have got a photo somewhere with it on the car

when I get home ill go in my shed and tell you what make model it is as I can't remember lol. but I got mine of eBay and i grabbed it for a bargain £12

 

[voorhees]

My meagre specialized carve 29er

 

[weeroughy]

Bought the frame from work cheap, built it up out of some bits i had lying around. Planned to build and sell on to make a cheeky profit



After a quick test ride at glen tress, I discovered the frame, despite being a small, was perfect geometry for me for throwing down hills and over jumps. So it got some new forks... Float 32 130mm.

And has since had Ritchey bars and stem, float RP23 shock, and some new brakes.

All in has cost me about 300quid! And is the best bike i've bought to date!

 

[jay1601]

heres my 2 bikes:

Scott Nitrous 20 (2005)

and

Scott Gambler FR20 (2008) monster 9.5" rear travel and 8" front

 

[Alan H]

I bought mine back in 2007, would love to upgrade but find it hard to justify. Still in good nick though.

New pedals, saddle and forks have been fitted since this was taken

 

[s3 Hoggy]

I used to be into the more street/jump bikes with a couple of Giants and an One-One Gimp but now I'm a bit more sane (not as brave as I used to be) I stick to a bit of light XC with my stumpy

 

[CHEZ]

glenntress and spooky wood rocks!

(got slicks on here for cycle paths with the dog!)

 

[CHEZ]

My mate keeps on banging on about Glentress, need to go up there with him sometime. Hamsterly Forest and Chopwell Woods are my locals and damn hard work.

hamsterley is not a patch on glentress mate! get it done! its well worth the drive!
spooky wood is awesome! and its a good 5mins of downhill terror once you get to the top lol!
in fact give me a shout and i will come too!

 

[superkarl]

in fact give me a shout and i will come too!

me three!

 

[crazy88]

Since we are all inviting ourselves... Me too!

 

[weeroughy]

i'm always up for some glen tress action too!

Having been to several trail centres in wales, i think glen tress/spooky woods is my personal favourite. Although i'd love to go back to wales!

 

[Blackie]

I just sold this

and this

and built this

 

[crazy88]

Mines only a hard tail and I have limited ability ha. Not sure I could hit a black run without killing myself.

Edit, just found a pic of mine. It desperately needs some good forks, but they'll do for now. Don't get to ride it much at the moment.

 

[Alan H]

Im the same.

I ride a fair bit, but I did my thrill seeking years ago, I do it for fitness these days....

 

[Mr-C]

My Specialized XC I have been terribly lazy lately... apart from a day at Cannock Chase I have not really used it much this year.
