ByrceD you are an idiot haha and thats not saying much...

Makes you wonder if people like sharkyboy see things the same way the rest of us do... A comment like that can only be ignorance. As for the cycle, brilliant idea to get disabled people out for a ride.

sammie (Sep 19, 2008 at 6:10)

i wouldnt say its a waste, if you want to ride and you cant because of a disability this is the best thing. Although i would say it is ridicously expensive for what it is.

chinese0421 (Sep 19, 2008 at 16:37)

I think its reasonable because its like buying 2 bikes because it has 2 wheels, 2 shocks, etc. plus the frame is custom made and all those pivots have to be well designed...

sammie (Sep 20, 2008 at 4:40)

the point im getting at is i find it really harsh to charge disabled people so much money for things that will help them lead a normal life. Look at wheelchairs. They are over 30k sometimes which is crazy. Some mad bastards are making loads of money out of peoples disabilities.

chinese0421 (Sep 20, 2008 at 4:53)

oh.. yeah looking it from that point it is really expensive

mossom (Jun 2, 2008 at 13:47)

Ya man, is a Four-Cross bike. There is a guy in Whistler named Stacy something or other that is building them. $11,000.

That spiky skull thing in the background kicks ass.

spear667 (Jun 4, 2008 at 11:54)

Borgschulze (Jun 4, 2008 at 14:09)

I did, I know mossom as a friend, we talked for a bit about the Fourcross bike.

mossom (Jun 2, 2008 at 17:44)

Its a Corrosion of Conformity Skull. They were a late 80's metal band

mossom (Jun 2, 2008 at 17:45)

mtballtheway (Jun 6, 2008 at 7:45)

how come the back dosnt have torsion bars like the front. looks really fun and fairplay to your mate

mossom (Jun 14, 2008 at 21:47)

The back has a trailing arm. Pretty much works the same as a full suspension mtb. Only its a double trailing arm instead. Because it has 2 rear wheels of coarse.

mtballtheway (Jan 1, 2009 at 8:47)

sure but surley it would benefit to have 4 wheel independant suspension. although cost would increase some what

lumpykk (Jul 22, 2008 at 16:51)

overdosekid (Jul 22, 2008 at 17:16)

vineet (Sep 19, 2008 at 6:17)

Man thats really a sick bike. I guess it should also have a roll cage.. just incase it flips or something like that.

pete108 (Sep 19, 2008 at 6:20)

The handle bars seem far forward and low. When he drives this bike he must have his chin on his knees?

[Reply]

pete108 (Sep 19, 2008 at 6:20)

Nice bike though.

[Reply]

cerberus74 (Sep 19, 2008 at 6:21)

Looks like your body would still take a beating since you're sitting at the end of the trailing arm, unless there is some more bumb absorbtion under the seat. still looks like a kick ass ride.

mossom (Nov 26, 2008 at 10:54)

Correct, there is 2 levers on each side.

mossom (Nov 26, 2008 at 10:55)

I have another pic taken from the front and you can clearly see all 4 levers.
Cheers

hahaleon (Mar 24, 2009 at 20:40)

just wondering...how does it move? DH only or is there some sort of motor or drive train... something?

mossom (Mar 25, 2009 at 18:09)

You just point it down the hill and go.
