What makes a good mountain bike? A good rider. You aren't one and it
doesn't matter what bike you have. With you on it it's a dork on an
expensive bike at most. You probably have a fag rear shock and think
you
need it. You probably can't even ride in clip ins.



Am I not paying enough attention to you, Bob?
Okay.....

I'm a pretty good rider. I'll take terrain and hills most riders near
my age would pass up. I also shoulder my bike and climb with it on
occasion. That;s how I tore chest muscle. The bike caught on some
rocks and roots and I yanked too hard. I still finished my ride. My
bike has no rear shocks, but some very good bikes do have them.

A good bike is still a good bike even with a beginner rider on it,
Bob. A good bike with no rider is STILL a good bike, or they'd cost
less in stores when not sold with a good rider in the box.

There. No go try something else. My home theatre is about a week or so
from completion. I did a sound test yesterday and it's fantastic. I
also ran the cables for the projector, so now I just need to refine
the sub placements and I can lock it all in.
