MTB

Post by danxe »

Damn Tom :teeth: Anyways, I had been shopping for a new ride / my Trek 6500 was getting a little aged. I was between a couple of bikes (Anthem X4, FSR XC Comp, Trance etc.) and after test piloting a couple ended up with the Reign 2. About 50 metres and it was an easy decision / minor mods to follow.

Front 150mm / 5.9" - Rear 152mm/6" - noted on the bash guard thanks. Really nice feel/components for the price.

Yeah Tom has the mac daddy SX / will be great at supporting the below mod in a few years. :fawkdance: No arm twisting required lol / Kelly laughed and said she knew I was going to get that one. Easy when we ran into you on Saturday and proved that indeed all the other kids have one. All the best.

She gets cleaned after every ride. When you send close to $5000.00 on a bike you take care of it.

Yeah as a bike mechanic I know the importance of keeping things clean but at least take some dirty pics. We want to know if you use it.
