why does a bike like that have a fox vanilla on it

haha what a bag of dirt!

Stop criticizing. I would like to see you guys get to the level he is at, which is professional at just over 20 years of age. It's a damn good bike. So until you are sponsored by a bike manufacturing company and you are at his level, shut the fcuk up.

You guys that think it looks ugly are retarded. That bike looks bad ass.

i agree, i acually think its a dope frame design, diggin the totems

Romaniuk is an awesome rider for sure , very talented, bu that really doesnt change the fact that this bike looks like shit !! one ugly bike !!

I didnt like it at all at first, but the design is growing on me.

he shuda definitly sticked with spesh, they bikes actually compliment how good his riding is and looks.

STEVE DESERVES BETTER
hes such a good rider
and its good for mongoose
to have a rider like him but
i think Steve should have a sponsor
like ironhorse or cove
or something
but congrats Steve on the new bike
and have a awesome o7 season

you guys are all idiots, if you knew ur shit then you would know that the freedrive is one of the most advanced linkage systems in the mtb world, and that that bike would out perform almost anyother. Sure it may not look as sick as a demo but it probably works better. So stop criticizing it just beacuse its a mongoose and they sell shit bikes at walmart

i think its a sick bike but im jus wonderin y does it have a van R, have a sweet 07 season ROMO

yah sick bike steve

technically better bike brands means better appeal BUT, the point is to keep on riding and riding with pride, you take what you can get. steves already been with specialized a couplayearz now so its time for a change.........understand that..

i would love to have sexual intercoarse whith that bike

so what about the back shock?

sweet but two things - no chainguide, and a xc-looking stem? wth?

there is a chainguide and that doesn't look much like an xc stem, last time i checked xc stems are 50mm.

i think the bike is solid.. i saw them at interbike... very cool stuff.. it may not look the best... but i bet that is one of the reasons they got Steve. With his input and the solid rear end design they have they could come up w/ some super sick looking bikes.

one thing, i think its hilarious how a lot of PB'ers think that Pros can just pick and choose their sponsors... seriously .. they don't just say, Hey Ironhorse sounds like an awesome sponsor ... i'll get on their payroll.

those are some of the most entertaining comments i've read in a long time!..sick ride...sick ride..happy trails
