Hey so I know this isnt a freeride or all-mtn, and it's by no means new. It is however my newest steed and I do feel lucky to own it. I purchased it from the 2nd owner and he never built it up since his wife was against it. He bought it from a factory rider that only rode it 4 times before bustin' it down and transplanting his parts to another frame.

Just wondering if it passes? Im a wrench @ a small LBS in Illinois and we just dont have anything with ANY real elevation so I dont quite need a freeride bike yet. I am building up a Trek Session 77 for a buddy/customer and I have PINK URBAN CAMO Sun MTX S-Type's on their way that will be laced to Bontrager King Earl hubs.
Anyways,..Later Y'all,.Im glad to be here @ PinkBike,.Thanks,.KeithyG

Well this seems as good a place as any to make a first post. So...This is my old 2004 Specialized Demo 9 Pro - before the rear triangle got bent when it was hit by a car.

Wow you got a better replacement dude... Paint the 40 red may be ? since you already got red cranks... what are they ?
Hmm yeah but I did pay extra on top of the insurance for the 8. The cranks are Raceface Northshore XS. As for the 40s in red...well...I was thinking about getting the frame resprayed when it gets really roughed up (graphite grey or white) and getting the 40 lowers painted the same grey or in white like the 2008s.
