Too bad we don't all carry $6000 in cash on us all the time, otherwise we'd all be riding new bikes

Make an Iron Horse Sunday worse and you have a KHS, make an Iron Horse Sunday better and you have a dw-DHR. Its kind of sad that they are even suggested as equals. One ride on the dw-DHR (I rode one at Crsankworx and was blown away) changes a lot of perceptions. Pretty snazzy paintjob on the KHS for a Taiwan catalog bike. How people buy into this kind hype is beyond me. I thought the internet was making people buying bikes smarter!

I want to see some more of those small time bike companies with their prototypes and offerings. How about some shots of the One Ghost line up?

From all of Daves FB posts, his bikes are getting mega media attention.

Not dissing it at all as there are alot of firms that do similar.

looks quite tasty.

Its the first time Ive seen it but Im loving the DHR suspension design. I havent seen that type of linkage before and its speaking to me. BIG TIME, BIG TIME!

Its the DW link. Same link as Iron Horse was using a few years ago. Its nothing new but it looks sooooo sick.

I rode one at crankwerx, it was super nice.

rhys-the-rider (Apr 18, 2011 at 5:09)

isn't it 2 different linkage systems on ironhorse and the DHR? I thought that dave weagle designed a new 4 bar link system for turner, after ironhorse went down. (going from memory, i havn't seen an ironhorse in a while)

DHR is dw-link it's just a newer version

Probably a dumb question, but can someone tell me why the intense/x fusion bikes have a bunch of random and sticker-less forks?

1 0

markde (Apr 17, 2011 at 14:57)

because x-fusion doesn't make a dh fork yet so the riders use whichever fork they want, minus the stickers

swilson669 (Apr 17, 2011 at 14:58)

X fusion does not make a downhill fork yet so they do not want to promote for a brand they don't ride for

Anyone know what the story with the 951's dropouts are?
Wheres the G3 system?

eastforkbikes (Apr 17, 2011 at 4:23)

I know they got rid of the g3 dropout system on the 951s, im not sure why though. On Intense's website id just says something to the effect of "featuring a new dropout system, and rear swing arm reminiscent of its older brother M9"

The 951 was the top rig last year. It is now the cheaper option, so good by adjustable drop out etc.

I love the Ritchey P29er. The original was a bit before my time. But that one looks bad ass.

951 in orange looks fucking braw. I almost regret opting for a Sunn Radical instead this season.

SO is KHS using Maestro suspension now? I can see the bottom linkage(if any) but it sure looks like maestro.
