Deja Vu of a Specialized Epic

No need for words.  SOLD.

The next Rocky Mountain (it's a Switch) ...

It's a fact: Rocky Mountain's are my favorite.  I ride one, my wife rides one, and you SHOULD be riding one ... SOLD!

DBR V-8 ... takes me back

In 1993 I purchase my first, and ONLY, brand-new bike -- it was a Nishiki Pueblo.  I thought it was the bomb!  But, of course, like any 14-year-old, I became eager to tweak and customize and 'soup-up' my 'rig', so I quickly 'upgraded' ... to a MTN Tek something-or-other.  I saved up my hard earned money and purchased a brand-new 1996 Rock Shox Judy XC (no crappy Quad 5 or Quad 21 or Mag 21 for me, oh no...).  Can you imagine, a crappy MTN Tek chromoly hard-tail with a $300 fork (that was a lot back in those days, remember!).  Well, the MTN Tek didn't last long -- it went the way of the Nishiki.  So, WHAT did I replace the MTN Tek with you ask?  A DBR Vertex TR -- a sexy, matte-black hardtail.  I built it from the frame up w/ a Rock Shox Judy SL (later upgraded to a the carbon FSX), XTR throughout, Paul Love Levers (yes, you heard me right), Mavic X-717's, Dean titanium handlebar / stem / seatpost ... and the list goes on.  It was my favorite bike of all-time (until I built my GT STS-XCR 1000 (met a sad ending), and my most recent ETSX.
Anyways, I guess you could say I have a special bond to DBR, which brings me to the DBR V8.  Believe it or not, this is an excellent cross-country rig.  I've thrown on my brand-new LX throughout.  The SID up front is a SID -- super-light and will never die.  SOLD!

The Super 8 -- the DH flagship of Santa Cruz

It's hard to talk bad about a Santa Cruz; the Super 8 is no exception to that rule.  Although the aluminum finish is a tad weathered, it's still an amazing-looking machine.  SOLD!

Trek 8000 -- excellent commuter/xc ride

Here it is; one of the few bikes actually built here in the USA -- a Trek 8000.  This is a great little hardtail that would be perfect for riding along the foothills or commuting to and from the office.  SOLD!

The Pipeline -- yet another Rocky Mountain

I'll admit it: Rocky Mountain's are my favorite.  You simply can't go wrong!  SOLD.

Gary Fisher Fat Possum ... no lame gimics here

Gary Fisher started it all (with mountain biking, atleast), and he's still got it.  This Fat Possum is one excellent all-mountain rig.  SOLD!
