crazy vintage shiz

So much purple ano….

that has so much ringle stuff on it … I still have a ringle stem (quill mind you and 1") that is a bit of mtb history.. not purple but chrome…

So this came into work today.

I'm gonna see if I can buy the hite-rite off the guy.

Vintage steel put to use.

i've got something like that in the works: pepto pink lugged norco sasquatch. i've been thinking of setting it up for off road use or building up some dyno/3speed wheels, but it will probably just end up as a bar bike. just need some period correct wide bars…

Does this count as vintage?

Time capsule from 2002.

I put my 2002 bullit in the enduro/am thread. Nobody blinked. I think there is no place for them.

I should clarify that it came into the shop I work in for repairs. Basically if you posted this bike in the "2002 Freeride/Huck-to-Flat" thread it has literally everything you could ever dream of.

46.8 lbs btw, front end is retardedly heavy, feels like you would nose in off anything, but you'd probably ride it out no issues. :lol:

Countering that nosing feeling was a super short reach and a pair of Roach shorts buzzing your 24" rear tire.

Got a buddy who is selling his with a Shiver. Act now before it's gone!

still my fav fork ever, you felt like you could crush anything that was in front of - roots, rocks, small children, large children buses, you name it. i rolled the second rock drop on groovula one day with one of those forks - handled it like a boss.

the only thing better in that pic would be if it was a super 8 with an avy rear shock.

I've finally found a bike that matches my glitter saddle:

Rocking a metal cock for a stem, 52t big ring for hot Cypress laps and double U brakes. The local Hipsters don't know what's hit them.

Panaracer still makes the Smoke and Dart, btw. ;)

Yep. I do have a set of Racing Porcs in my storage space, but this bike is now shod with a fine set of worn semi-slicks that I dragged out of the recycling bin today.
