It's a Custom built from a small manufacturer up in Canada.. DeKerf Cycles ..Check out the lug-work.....a really nice steel hardtail.

I'd even go so far as to say..."I'm green with envy", although it's a little bling if you will....to this middleager...LOL

DOWNHILL ALL THE WAY.. dont like cross country to much

 

[MidLifeCrisis]

I totally agree....I've only ridden full suspension.... Right now I'm on a Titus motolite, and prefer going downhill myself!!

I used to ride more, mostly just singletrack/fireroad stuff but it's been busy the last couple years and the bike hangs on the rack. The big reason was last time I rode, it was in some kind of chalk quarry or something and had all these awesome, super smooth hills for riding and jumping. When you bailed, chalk would get into everywhere on you and the bike. I didn't want to ride it again until I cleaned it cause that stuff is murder on bearings, but had no access to an air compressor and no where to really clean it. It still hangs dirty today.

I plan on cleaning and riding this year, after I move and settle some things in my life (all good things).

My ride:

97 Cannondale F1000 hardtail in mango orange
05 Bomber MXComp 100mm (so glad to lose that awful headshok)
XT v-brakes, rear derailr
LX cranks, hubs,frt derailr
Raceface bb, sun rims
Cane Creek headset, Kore stem, Ameoba bars, Sachs twistshift, blah blah blah

damn, a picture IS worth a thousand words.

Nice rides, everyone!
