Come on man! You don’t know what financial struggles people are having, and what is going on in their lives. What if they couldn’t afford a nice bike? What if their bike got stollen? Every bike shines in some places. The more expensive bikes tend to shine more in certain spots, but TbH I wouldn’t mind having a coiler!

Financial struggles?... One of those bikes has axs everything, ewings and ohlins suspension.
yeah, i was talking about the coiler. the one with the Ohlins was nice though

Dude what's the name of this thread? Your bike is getting so much flack because you forgot to do something when you posted it *Hint: it's in the title*

'Looks clean' isn't really a score out of 10...

I didn’t know we had to do 1-10
I’m new to this subforum
So let’s go I go on 9-10
Would like a yellow grips to match the fork decals.
But it’s a very clean and new bike so I give the 9 easily

9/10 for that niner. The blue and orange reminds me of the gulf livery on older Porsche race cars.

That steel (I think?) honzo is super cool. After riding a friend's chromag rootdown, I kinda want a burly hardtail.

Ripley v4. It s downcountry af

Ripley v4

Ordered in November. Frame arrived in February and finished it right before my shop closed due to corona. Riding it every other day, I think I got my money's worth.

The Riley gets a 9.8 with the fender and a 10/10 without, beautiful bike.

Built for the 2020 race season that was never meant to be....

10/10 on the Supercaliber; love the black and dark grey/blue color scheme. Very clean.

Top fuel with a few upgrades (grips, tires, dropper, 1x conversion, etc). The perfect xc machine that can still send smaller jumps.

There you go! I'll give your Coiler a 7/10. Three of my buddies had those when we were in high school. They were super rad. It isn't flashy but I bet it's a blast to ride.

Thanks fellas, she's certainly no beauty queen. I guess it depends where/what you ride and how often you drop the bike. I didn't put them on for the looks and the side on profile view doesn't work for me either.
If the guards came with a hinged clamp I would certainly run them only when required, same as my mudhuggers which are velcro'd on.

Cheers!
