Ouchies!
i thought they had a higher bb hight for the world cup bike
but i may be wrong LOL
but i may be wrong LOL
you either don't know how to set up your suspension, or your a huge hack to do that to your bike.
^^the bike is just doing what it's supposed to do.
hahahahaha!!! amazing shot!
No, not cool. Why would u wanna do that to a Sunday?
im sure he didnt want to do it... lol. idiot.
wtf? stupid b*tch lolololol "sundays are not supposed to be compressed like this man! thats bad man" o_0 lololol
Hahaha, you guys are the idiots. No suspension is meant to be bottomed like that, that is why forks and rear shocks have adjustments, so no, I am not the idiot here.
acturly no. for dh you should set the suspension up so that its just bottoms out when doin a decent sized drop. this guy has got it rite if hes landin a drop to flat. which he probably is as his tyres are compressed as well
wileskws What the hell are you talkin about, of course suspension is meant to bottom out, it wouldnt be suspension otherwise, mite aswell run rigids if you dont want your sus to bottom out.
wileskws is on to something, suspension is not supposed to bottom. However its designed so that both suspension and the bike can handle it, because the second you run soft enough to compete at any level of DH racing you will bottom out, that I garentee. So although it is not healthy for the bike it really doesn't hurt it cause its designed to take the abuse.
@wileskws: ....because it is built for that 
not for pinch flats.
he didnt pinch flat and made it through the finish line at full speed 
but how come hes bottoming? did he just come off a lip or summin?
He turned it into a 4x bike
awesome, should get pod me recons
bouncing soul, no full suspension is made to bottom out, and wiles, i dont think he wanted to do that
anyway, cool to see the dw link suspension in action and bottomed out, shows you just how it works..

Yea i do like the way you can see the link suspension fully compressed. It also looks like the
bike handled the impact very well considering his body position.

ryan every full suspension is suppposed to bottome out ok First a why would they have different rebound the farthur you go through the travel? B what about the rubber stopper in the rear shock? I bottom my bike out pry once or twice a day on full day rides. And i run stiffer than normal springs and am a good rider.............soooooooo yeah it is healthy but not all the time and judging by that dudes pic his springs are way way too soft because look at his body postion when i bottom out I am shitacking hardcore!
I think it goes A, then B, not first, then B......I think you've caught the dumb, that sh*ts been going around lately on all these bottom out photos.....adfiounsrkgljnwarzgiopuQBNEWFklsDJNVbnSIOEb
So, you bottom your bike DAILY, I just got that part, I hope your frame snaps, but if you're sooooooooooo gooood........yeaaaaahh
Im fairly sure a properly set up shock (for DH) is supposed to bottom a few times a ride, over jumps etc, due to the sag and stiffness settings.
wileskws What are you talking about? dude-o is perfectly right about bottoming out your bike with proper sag rates. The bike is a sunday which is a race specific dh bike thus springs are supposed bottom out and I think I know my stuff about bikes and consider myself a good rider. Why you hating? Go back to highschool and learn some manners kid. But then again this is pinkbike
hey a dh bike is made to get beat up thats why there so beefed up with suspension and super strong frames. now im no expert of any kind but i mean i agree with pistol2ne guy that the rubber stop is to help you so u dont blow out ur shok. and ya dh bikes do have softer set up to get over things a lil better and smoother but i mean come on use it to its fullest. just my opinion
wow real cool, hope it gets pod
did he damage the fork and the rear shock or did it go oky? but for sure it is a nice pic? maybe POD
obviously not, shocks and forks are supposed to bottom out once or twice every run. It means your using your suspension to its ful potential.
8 inch of travel gotta be used somehow!
http://www.pinkbike.com/photo/1783419/ check this end of travel 
im sure he did no damage to the suspension ... its gona be bottomed out every now and then
Its supposed to bottom out once or twice every run, as i've said before its using your suspension to its full potential.
lovin the bottomed out pics
fork and shock should be bottomed out like once or twice in dh run....or in regular riding as well....you can read that in your shock and forks settings.....if you dont bottom out it means that you have your suspesion set up wrong,too stiff.....and I guess that there´s nothing wrong with this pic...I have sunday too!!!!
horror. i bet he bounced back outta that though, damn.
21st Century suspension has rebound control you know.
either done a huge drop or wieghs a bloody tonne!! haha
how about done around a 30 foot long table ?
Ha, well if he was on a 30 foot long table, HE MISSED THE TRANSITION!!!
Forgot about rebound and compressiom ajustmets?
Dude thats FlatOut!
Dude thats FlatOut!
wack up the tyre pressure!!
aint it coz hes landing off the final Jump? and every bike does bottom out, just depedns what style ur on. 
theres a pic of brendan fairclough doin this 2 his sunday accept his pedals are hitting the ground!!!!!!
what a fat ass!!!
nice pic man
nice pic man
proper hammerin the comments on this bud
awesome pic
awesome pic
It's cool that the photographer caught that moment where the bike is almost at dead bottom. Usualy bottom out pics are really blury.
that iron horse has quite a bit of travel and you've gotta be doing something pretty big to bottom it out, and the boxxer tems on the front !! ??
wow !!! never seen an ironhorse that low !!!
he better hope his recoil is on like barely anything or he's going to need a bender bike from how high in the air the recoil is going to send him.
how hard did u land on that?
funny pic!
funny pic!
cheers for the comments guys ... i took this picture . the rider has just done the last jump at the last round off pearce cycles summer series 2007
coolll I now would like buy a boxxer team and after this picture i know the fork move out the full way perfect
I now would like buy a boxxer team and after this picture i know the fork move out the full way perfect 
I think that bike is made to survive this if it happens...But i think if you would do this every single day no sunday woukd survive that
ha great shot
nice sunday
WHAT YEAR?
nice sunday
WHAT YEAR?
never mind thats not a sunday.
looks like a 2007 factory sunday to me
thats adzacky how that bike is ment 2 be every1 is saying its bad its not its perfect
bottom out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
jusuuuuus! that mad lol
and thats why they invented suspension. sick pic. and thats a perfect setup for that jump
the idiat doesent know how to set up suspention
sorry great pic thinking of a nother pic
lol, that takes some doing!!! cool picture though , the rider looks so relaxed little does he know that his feet are centimetrs from the floor
for a second it looked like the rear part snapped off but then i noticed its connected lil higher, but man thats pretty intense
that tire is gonna run up your ass so hard
where the hell did he come from? the sky?
wileskws your just a d1ck head so just dont say any more sh1t ok !!! jesus crist ur wrong!!! suspensoin is meant to nearly bottem out !!!
He cased a landing, of course he's going to bottom out, if not his suspension would be set up too stiff. The take off for that jump is hard to hit with enough speed to clear the landing...
thats so awesome how well the suspension works!
