Arawn (Oct 18, 2009 at 3:27)

crankhog (Oct 18, 2009 at 4:48)

You can pick it up for 525 seeing as postage won't be £100

CraiGee (Mar 13, 2010 at 16:13)

Sorry that i made you use sarcasm, but if you'd actually read the whole thread, you'd see i was only putting him straight on trying to make people look stupid over their lack of knowlege. The Reply button is at the bottom of the thread just so you know.

crankhog (Nov 15, 2009 at 14:47)

8 inches

AidanW1 (Nov 17, 2009 at 11:50)

is that a joke, you call yourself a biker you shud no this shit

crankhog (Nov 17, 2009 at 15:39)

It's not even my frame it's my mates I couldn't give a shit how much travel it has I just asumed it would be 8 inches due to the number 8 appearing in the name

AidanW1 (Nov 18, 2009 at 12:14)

not you douche your right it does have 8 inch but every one shud know that id they ride dh its one of the most poular frames about

CraiGee (Jan 22, 2010 at 16:05)

Actually dick chin, its 8.3" so stop having a go at people you dont know. Cock.

AidanW1 (Jan 24, 2010 at 4:00)

fuck you wanker

CraiGee (Jan 27, 2010 at 2:58)

I see you formulated an intellegent and relevant response there. Douche bag

AidanW1 (Jan 27, 2010 at 12:40)

well i see you trying to be a clever shit but i really dont care , i was quite shocked at the fact people had no idea how much travel a demo 8 has and im sorry if i wasnt correct to the nearest .3 of an inch but at least i had an idea. and im sure you can ajust them so that they can have 8

CraiGee (Jan 29, 2010 at 6:10)

Pretty sure you're just a douche bag who likes having a go at people online. Why dont you sort your f*cking life out, and try just being pleasnt and if your going to be helpful just answer his question, it would have been less effort and people would not be reading this and saying "What a cock".

AidanW1 (Jan 29, 2010 at 9:05)

well really you are also a douche bag who likes having a go at people. i dint say anything offensive i said are you being seriouse , and you really should know how much travel they have. so why dont you stop trying to be the hero and piss off because your just as much if a dick as i am. and yes i do like having a go at people on line because if i didnt it wud be boaring

steveissilly (Jan 30, 2010 at 14:38)

aidanW1 Don't rip and tear, educate and share.

AidanW1 (Jan 30, 2010 at 15:09)

steveissilly dont talk shit, your just a tit.

steveissilly (Jan 30, 2010 at 15:11)

hmm quite poetic aye?

AidanW1 (Jan 30, 2010 at 15:12)

yes i like poetry but im not a nerd, i prefer the term intelectual bad ass

CraiGee (Jan 30, 2010 at 15:36)

... I'm sorry, you were the one trying to look down your nose at someone because they didn't know how much travel a bike had. The point i was making is that you could have been helpful and told him instead of attempting to make him look stupid, with poor grammar may i add. I made a comment because people like you annoy me, not because i wanted to have a go at you. In response to your last comment, I highly doubt that you are an "intelectual bad ass" when you cannot spell the word Intellectual, or even "would" for that matter. Please don't make yourself look like more of a moron.

AidanW1 (Jan 31, 2010 at 1:58)

well when i am casualy typing i dont try and spell every word correctly so from now on i will try to please your high standards. and just so you all know before you take this conversation any further i have stealth ninja powers and will chop you up old school style.

bertieBBbaxter (Jan 31, 2010 at 2:12)

please carry on this argument, im having a hell of a time reading this

CraiGee (Jan 31, 2010 at 16:17)

Well, you 15 and from sunderland, so I think you should just shut up.

AidanW1 (Feb 1, 2010 at 12:55)

well technically im from durham so if i was you i would get your facts wright, and yes i am 15, is that some kind of problem because if so i dont think i can really do anything about it

CraiGee (Feb 2, 2010 at 7:25)

Nope, just means your a knob. And your profile states sunderland, either way, there both a shithole.

jezzah (Feb 2, 2010 at 7:36)

Aidan if your shocked someone doesn't know the travel of a demo frame then I'd think it was because they have more of a life than you...

AidanW1 (Feb 2, 2010 at 12:04)

well no not really 3 of my mates have or have had them so thats how i know and considering its a world cup winning bike i would of thought people would no, its like people not knowing how much travel a v10 has. and i really dont live in a shit whole mate

jezzah (Feb 2, 2010 at 12:44)

Why do people have to know how much travel a bike has? Lols

AidanW1 (Feb 2, 2010 at 13:09)

wel they dont but most people do, i bet you know how much travel most bikes have

bertieBBbaxter (Feb 2, 2010 at 13:31)

how much travel does a sunday have? or a commy then??
without googleing it

AidanW1 (Feb 2, 2010 at 13:37)

sunday has 8, one of my best mates has one buut the commencal a dont know

bertieBBbaxter (Feb 2, 2010 at 13:40)

but the commencal is a world cup bike "considering its a world cup winning bike i would of thought people would no" so eat your worlds biatch!!

AidanW1 (Feb 2, 2010 at 13:47)

are commencals as common as demos, dont think so, do they state the amount of travel in the name like a DEMO 8 . im pretty sure they dont so

jezzah (Feb 2, 2010 at 13:56)

maybe they should call it a demo 8.3 then ?

AidanW1 (Feb 2, 2010 at 14:48)

wel its debaitable

jezzah (Feb 2, 2010 at 15:04)

Whys that?

(your not really winning by the way)

CraiGee (Feb 2, 2010 at 16:09)

You used the wrong hole by the way... Fucking spastic. You are no use here, please delete your account and fuck off.

CraiGee (Feb 2, 2010 at 16:12)

You also mis-spelt debatable, and you contradict you're self. Its not debatable, its fact, demo 8 does not state the ammount of travle it has in its name, in the same way the demo 7 and 9 do not. So its not really that much of a silly question. Sundays are far more popular than demos, and you self admittedly only know the amount of travle it has because your mate has one... Have fun explaining you're way out of that.

AidanW1 (Feb 3, 2010 at 10:35)

it doesnt matter how i know what matteris is that i know. do you really think i care and have been seriouse about this whole conversation because i could not give a fuck so save your own time and shut up

AidanW1 (Feb 3, 2010 at 10:36)

and were i live i see a lot more demos than sundays. and i didnt dount that sundays are not popular i said its commencals that are not verry common

CraiGee (Feb 3, 2010 at 10:43)

Well, you're still trying to justify yourself, so im sure you do care. Just fuck off and die.

AidanW1 (Feb 3, 2010 at 10:55)

i just thought i would state that were i live demos are more common just to prove you wrong. you fuck of and die your pissing your nickers just because i said he should now how much travel a demo has.

CraiGee (Feb 3, 2010 at 15:37)

Sorry mate, most MEN dont wear knickers... what does how common demos are have to do with anyting, maybe they aren't very common where he is from? hmm? think about that? YOU FAIL AT LIFE

jezzah (Feb 3, 2010 at 23:44)

Wow you guys are pedantic!

Essentially, who gives a shit how much travel a demo has if you dont own one?

Got to love pinkbike..

CraiGee (Feb 4, 2010 at 17:08)

Shut it jerome. you're oppinion is invalid here.

jezzah (Feb 4, 2010 at 23:46)

Its the internet craig! My opinion is valid everywhere

bertieBBbaxter (Feb 8, 2010 at 11:37)

i second Sharons point!!

iceman8 (Mar 12, 2010 at 9:32)

Haha CraiGee chill the hell out dude seriously. What is wrong with you? You are laying into someone for being 12 but you are acting like such a child; swearing and hurling abuse at someone doesn't mean you win an argument, just makes you an immature dickhead. Go out and ride instead of sitting at home spouting shit on the internet. Who really gives a f*ck if its not exactly 8 inches of travel??? 222, 223 and 224 don't add 1mm onto the shock length each year. And its all relative; I think you will find currently demos are much more popular than sundays; heaps of people are selling sundays and IH went under last year whereas there is a 5 month waiting list for a demo.

AidanW1 (Mar 12, 2010 at 9:46)

thanks for that iceman but can this argument just stay dead, i cant be arsed with it

jezzah (Mar 12, 2010 at 11:03)

lol.

iceman8 (Mar 12, 2010 at 13:42)

Haha yeah fair play; kids like that just really infuriate me for some reason though

CraiGee (Mar 13, 2010 at 16:06)

not going to start this up again, but if you actually read the first few comments you would see that i was actually justifying a point that Aidan was being hypocritical. Not being childish, just putting someone in their place for insulting someone about not knowing something, you seem to have interperated it the other way round.

freerideglory (Nov 16, 2009 at 13:13)

so 200mm

CraiGee (Feb 4, 2010 at 17:10)

yes mate, near enough, about 210mm
