Just when you thought it couldn't get any better...

...the big S brings out a new, better, lighter, longer travel Stumpy. 140mm front and rear, and 22 pounds! I know what my next bike will be.... full story here and here...
There's also big changes to the Enduro as well, this thing is a beast at only 27lb. This would be a great bike for Caleb and the K-Man.
And there's a new Epic 29er, but everyone knows 29ers suck.

Hold that thought. Let's wait for the price first. Surely it's not going to go up in price!

That thing is gonna be close to 18 grand surely!

Was just talking to Matt from SBC, he's ridden it and says you won't believe how good it is. They'll have test bikes at the Worlds in Canberra later this year.

Ned said that about the 08 stumpy.
So much for that.

I am the most confused puppy in the world-even more so than Kadbri (the 13 week old chocolate lab puppy)-and that is very confused-he runs into mirrors!!
I have decided that the Nomad is too heavy at 33 lbs and the Intense is too twitchy and not light enough to justify that twitch at 27.
Intense Tracer???
All the best parts off both at about 30 lbs??
Now there is a 22 -sacre bleu
Medicine time

Dude, that Enduro has got your name all over it.

How can I buy a bike that we don't sell-maybe an Intense spider 2

brettok said...

Just make it happen! Sell your boat, Nomad, 5.5, that moto if u still got it. Then you might be halfway there.

You'd kill a Spider. A Tracer would be much better for you.

Yeah Kman. Don't you know someone who can hook you up. What about the Medium test bike in the shop, Brett? Would that fit him? Or would it have to be a new one? Mayb not quite so greeny-yellow?

kman said...

I just think it would be a tad rude for work.I already won't ride Mongoose-and we are a big Mongoose shop. I should keep it to something I can get for a potential customer-maybe I could make it a leave in NZ bike BUT we aint dooin no greeny-yellow anything-I can read the promo now-"As smooth as phlegm" -"more flow than mucus out your nose in flu season"
IBIS MOJO WTF --22 lbs-9.9kg ????

Mojo SL. mmmmmmmm

Fair enough. It's not the prettiest of colours, but you kinda get used to it..... kinda.

Turner 5 spot or Intense Tracer for the KMan. I spent 2 months on a Tracer and loved it. The DW spot is sweet too.
