    1989 Trek 1500 - First Road Bike!

    Over the past few months, I've become so enthralled about riding. A lot of it has to with this forum, giving me valuable and exciting information about my 92 Alpinestars Cromega LX. Now that I've been riding more, I wanted to pick up a nice commuter bike and go exploring all the beautiful...

    Alpinestars Cro-mega LX

    My buddy and I just went on the trails near my house today. It was an absolute blast. The power with this bike is fantastic. I feel proud when I ride this bike around :) Glad I can represent with a bike almost as old as I am.

    Late 80s/Early 90s Diamond Back

    I haven't really decided yet. I've had this bike since I was about 5, and I'm 21 now. I'm also 6' tall and it's a bit small to ride around right now. I might clean it up and keep it but I'm considering selling it (my dad is encouraging me to clean out the garage). It's got a lot of memories...

    1995 GT Tequesta (chocolate)

    I love the color of it right now, I'm curious to see how it turns out when you get it repainted.

    Onza Bar Ends! Finally got those Onza bar ends in the mail. Just slapped them on and wanted to show everyone! I'm gonna get some tape to wrap my handle bars, but for now I cut the rubber grips to make room for the bar ends. Lemme know whatcha think :P

    Late 80s/Early 90s Diamond Back

    After starting to ride my Alpinestars Cro-mega LX, I've been more and more interested in retro bikes. Last week I came home to my parents place for winter break and remembered this old Diamond Back bmx bike I used to have as a kid. I spent some time digging it out of the garage and this is what...

    Alpinestars Cro-mega LX

    That's exactly what I was looking for. Coincidentally, the two guys who created the Alpinestars USA brand are from San Luis Obispo, California. That's where I'm going to school right now. Really interesting history on these bikes. The more I know about them the more I like :)

    Alpinestars Cro-mega LX

    I'm not gonna replace the handle bar afterall, but different bar ends would be helpful. I'm 6' and having something else to grab onto would be nice. I saw these on ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/NIB-Vintage-Onza-Ra ... 4cf36c1dcb They're $10 with $20 shipping. Sounds like an okay deal to me, and...

    Alpinestars Cro-mega LX

    Those look great, thanks. I really appreciate the help. I checked out Answer Hyperlites and I realize I'd rather change the bar ends. Are there any recommended ends that would give me some different hand positions that are period with the bike?

    Alpinestars Cro-mega LX

    Yes, it is haha. I've been meaning to change that. I'll work on it this weekend maybe.

    Alpinestars Cro-mega LX

    What would the benefit be of changing them to the DX or XT's? I guess I'm looking for bar ends. I'll look into Answer Hyperlights, thanks for the tip. I honestly haven't seen any other Alpinestars in person, it's nice to find a community that's still enjoying them. Is it possible that...

    Alpinestars Cro-mega LX

    Hey everyone, First off I wanted to say how much I've enjoyed looking at this forum. I originally stumbled onto it when I was trying to look up information on my bike: an Alpinestars Cro-mega LX. Little did I realize there actually was a sizable community with these bikes! I'm student at...
