 lol lol lol
A company gives away a FREE FRAME and all you little blubber babies have to do is click a button. Just do it or shut up and go back to your miserable damp smelly cave! lol

 umm... excuse me. I had to click TWO buttons! I'm so exhausted now I think I need to go smoke my crack pipe and do nothing the rest of the day.

 soo.. Just found out the KHS said I won this bike online. But I never received notification that I won anything let alone the bike frame itself. Help me out pinkbike. How do I figure this out.

 Why can't all contests be as simple as the one for the #NotBad Trek Ticket.....
  • 5 6
 I'm not a huge fan of entering your email contests because they will email you regularly and can also sell your email to other companies, e.i. how you end up getting a bunch of spam mail.
  • 11 2
 Well time to bust out the old envelope and do a physical entry. Why do all these contests have to be on facebook? I assume I'm not the only one that doesn't have one.

 Marketing - because companies still seem to think advertising on facebook is actually effective

 I will jump in on this too. No facebook here but I can understand how it gets there name out. It's just marketing. KHS is jumping up all over everyone's feeds right now.

 is it only available in that red front triangle, black rear triangle paint scheme? Or can i get it in this
www.pinkbike.com/photo/10199662

probably a team paint job but i like it better. Don't worry though, i'd still be really excited if you gave it to me red and black Wink

 If I'm not mistaken that isn't a KHS
  • 2 1
 I believe it's a pre-production prototype, but pretty sure it's still a KHS 7500, just prior hydroforming development on the frame.. Good luck freestylAM, I don't have (lame-ass) facebook so I'm sending my luck to you Big Grin

 BallerBoy is right. You can tell by the top tube area, on the yellow bike it's straight and has an extra piece connecting to the top of the seat tube; unlike on the KHS. To make sure I went back to the article the pic appeared in: "Q Bikes had their 150mm travel, 27.5"-wheeled Segment Trophy on their stand..."

Awfully similar though.

 Mfbeast, too similiar dude. Look at the seatstay where it meets the shock link (and the shock link as well for that matter), the brace between chain-/seat-stays (+ the dropout itself), the downtube where it meets the headtube.. The bike on this page is essentially identical to the bike on the linked page, only a bit more refined. Regardless of semantics and minor differences ( theoatmeal.com/comics/minor_differences ), I would love to mob the sh*t out of either of them.

 Ha ha, didn't even realize that it wasn't a KHS (neither did google since that was one of the pics that same up in my google search). Guess they aren't going to choose me since i let the cat out of the bag that this is a Taipei cycle show catalog bike order. Not that everyone else isn't doing it. PB even ran this article about the ready made frames ready for your branding.

 I hate all these contests that you must "like" on facebook. I don't have facebook and I don't want to run to the store to buy a stamp and mail an entry.

 surely khs could have designed a rear triangle that was more consistent in tube shape and angles to the front triangle. it looks like the first rear triangle from a late 90s SC Blur.
  • 3 2
 Now that you mention it... Its like a nice curvy super model with chicken legs. Not too shabby though.

 No such thing as a Late 90's SC Blur...

 Can you guys have a contest for people under 18? People that are 18 and over can get jobs! I can't legally work yet, and that makes it very hard to get a nice bike!
  • 1 2
 totally agree. but how do they know anyways unless you put your birth date on your fb?
  • 9 1
 write to your senator
  • 17 0
 i'm pretty sure you can get a work permit at 14 or just do a under-the-table job (no tax is swwwweeeet). and people over 18 have to pay rent/mortgage, utilities, student loans, car loans, expensive gifts for insane girlfriends, children...like you. quitcher bitchen

 Plenty of 15-18 year olds work at fast food and retail chains - you gotta start somewhere! not sure if the age laws have changed since i was a teenager. i was at Mcdonalds at 15-16, then Sportmart at 17-18, then Performance Bikes, then college bike shop, now boring-ass career job. I miss the bike shop lifestyle, but do not miss the low wages.
  • 3 4
 Where I live is 15 yr. olds need a License, but my parents own a rental property, and I work there. My parents barely pay me anything though...Frown

 Totally with you man. But I have a job and a good amount of money. I just don't want to spend it all.
  • 1 0
 well if they paid you a ton of money right off the bat, that would set you up for major disappointment when you apply for other jobs. they don't call it "earning" for no reason.

 and every penny of that $300 pay check can go into your bike account since your don't buy your own anything. By the end of the summer you can buy more bike than most of the adults here.
The real reason teenagers don't have cash is a lack of self control or saving for college. The first is most likely and the second is probably a good idea, though it would be smarter to invest it by buying a share of your dad's house and making him pay you rent on that share.

 ^ if you enter into a partnership on the deed of the house you can split the equity and whatever profit comes from the final sale. since your parents are currently property owners i'm sure it's already on their mind.

 Every parent who wants their kid to go to college should consider this. It may be an option that works for them, especially if they own multiple properties. I hope to do something like it in 10 years when my kids start earning money.

 I agree with a lot that is said here, but I play multiple sports: Mountain biking, surfing, Lacrosse, snowboarding, and other stuff, and I have to pay for everything, and now that I'm getting pretty good at all of them, I need the more advanced gear, and so I need more money. I pay for all my stuff, so a little bit of help from maybe winning a raffle/contest would really help with the biking expenses. I knew when going into this sport, it would be expensive.

 look for more contests to enter. easier than it seems. i actually won a pb photo contest just by submitting a pic of a random bike. won all kinds of gear: reverb, fox pads, goggles, smith shades.

 im under 18 too and i have been working since i was 12, just be willing to do stuff and work will come. i mostly just pet sit and that makes bank! Depending on how many people you can make like $200 a weekend, but then you have to keep it wisely and not waste it, if you cant handle money and just blow it out your ass youll never get anything.

 Chad you will go far in life

 Chad you're far too young to be this practical and wise.

It's all about balance too. Slang and hustle to make that ca$h money, but be willing to use it every now and then also. E.g. I know of a billionaire Chinese industrialist who just died - granted he probably lived a good life, but never got to spend that last $1B, which he worked his whole life for. That is an amount that is completely foreign and out-of-this-world to me; it's like saying you make $infinity.

 Haha, lilshredman, totaly feel the same, im finaly 16, but its not lije anyones handing out jobs! So its back to the parents $20 for three hours of painting or whatever...
  • 2 0
 sounds crazy, but if you get a license to do business ($25) and you wait for a parade on a hot day you can sell bottled water out of a cooler and make a quick $100 easy. Especially if you have a cute little kid to sit in a wagon with the cooler.
If you aren't too scrupulous you can always sell pirated t-shirts too. I'm thinking Pimk Bike. . .
Just kidding. Don't do that.

 @Quesadilla34, more like $20 for 10 hours of whatever in my case...

 I'm 18. I've had a job for 4 years. I make roughly 3k and I only work 4ish months of the year. This year I got a second job that is year round. What have I been doing? Mowing lawns. Be willing to work, and work will find you.
  • 1 0
 ^ "Be willing to work, and work will find you."

This is the right mentality and all anyone (young AND old) should be saying to themselves. With this no-excuses outlook you will always have a job. When I interview people for positions, I absolutely HATE hearing things like "I won't do this, I won't touch that, I'll only work such and such hours, etc..." especially in the bike service and retail business.

 That is exactly true and exactly how I feel, ur getting paid to do the job, do it no matter what. Don't be choosey if you have an opportunity...don't. Be part of outrageous union demands either. Haha

 Just the frame? Come on KHS. Plus I have to wait 4 months to know if I won. Child please...

 How long are the gift horse's teeth, anyway?

 Maybe instead of giving away frames they should price these bikes competitively instead of $5500 for a friggin KHS.

 Enduro specific contest?

 Wish it was a downhill bike instead.
