friend got a new camera and he wanted to try out the multi shot function so a bottom out shot seemed like a good idea

The new Giant 4X Prototype. This year they decided to incorperate a 12mm BB height for added stability and run Fox's new 15mm dual crown forks for stiffness and pedalling efficiency.

DEgenerationX (Nov 24, 2009 at 10:49)

well as soon he have more air in the wheels the bash guard and chain guide will be raised...

DEgenerationX (Nov 24, 2009 at 22:52)

well i didnt say you set it up for that drop............................ some have low psi in the tubes.. i only see it as an slowing thing and i hate going slow... and dont take this wrong but i just said that if you got more air in the tubes they wont bend that much and then it will raise from the ground..

sessionman123abc (Jul 11, 2010 at 21:14)

i think he has a flat

I just love to see photos where everything is bottomed out like there was no tomorrow, yet rider looks like he never even heard of actually using his own damn limbs as suspension too... just my 2 cents

[Reply]

mattias40000 (Nov 24, 2009 at 17:57)

guys, first of all: there is nothing written about tastes! if he likes the suspension as soft as that, THERE´S NO BIG DEAL!!!! thats the way he likes it. Other thing, i assume he uploaded this pic because he likes it and wants to share it with the world because he feels fine with it. I think that is fine! why say its lame, gay or whatever? be more respectfull about other peoples tastes and things, nobody is judge here, its not a contest or shit. i personaly like the pic, its cool (don´t know how tall 5 ft are, im chilean and i use centimeters and meters, and still, dont give a hell).
this is my advice for everyone.
take care Smile

holy crap, by reading through all of this, I'm almost laughing myself to death. You rarely see someone getting so owned under his own pic... it is also very entertaining to read the ongoing debates with twit twats like emo2k7kid.

Crap there should be something like CB.O.D. Comment Board Of the Day, that would be my vote here Big Grin

You Brits are just masters of humour, must be the legacy of Monthy Python, Eddie Izzard or Billy Conolly. crap buahaha Big Grin

jac114 (Feb 13, 2010 at 3:05)

another kid got the gear with no idea... learn how to set your bike up properly for starters.. then learn how to drop so this does not happen and agree with juancho918

thekettle (Sep 19, 2011 at 5:54)

orr he could just bolt a shock in to it

[Reply]

jonnyw374 (Sep 13, 2009 at 14:41)

dude that is mental...

his tyres are even folding...

and look how close his chain device is to hitting the ground...

The same happens to any bike under compression it's designed to do that it's not a fault. Get some knowledge before posting on my pictures

RockyMtnSlayer (Nov 17, 2009 at 17:24)

hahaha maybe set up your suspension stiffer and stop crying about comments pussy

cubsrtbest99 (Nov 18, 2009 at 19:50)

If its a race bike theres nothing wrong with the suspension being set up soft. Its designed to be plush/bottom out easliy so that its smoother over rocks and stutter bumps etc....

Quinn-39 (Oct 25, 2009 at 20:56)

go take you're "no helmet" bs to your corner... you've got issues man.
Safety first. Wear protection.

idonthaveabike (Nov 22, 2009 at 10:53)

what a dick! of course you should where a helmet, if pete had fallen off and hit his head it would of been bad. his head wouldnt soak up the drop like suspension Razz

nutter-1 (Oct 14, 2009 at 12:30)

Sarcasm:

1.A cutting, often ironic remark intended to wound.
2.A form of wit that is marked by the use of sarcastic language and is intended to make its victim the butt of contempt or ridicule.

there u are

hobbnobs (Oct 14, 2009 at 13:51)

yet you still couldnt tell i was being sarcastic when i asked you to explain

Run 1- over did the hardest section of the track came off hit a tree run 1 was a goner , run 2 went really well till I washed out before the feild section and hit my head, cracked my helmet and sat down for a while then rolled across the finish.
Look through the rest of my albums if you think I have all the gear and no idea.
