98+ BoTM May/June 2013 : Nominations please

[Raging_Bulls]

Considering the success of open BoTM months as opposed to the specials, we've decided to ditch the specials in the 98+ section.
This means that the rules have changed a bit too. Any bike can now be entered twice, unless it has won on its first outing, of course.
See rule 14 HERE.

Anyway, please submit your bikes. Deadline for entries will be Thursday June 20th at 23:00 GMT

IbocProSX (junior) 's 2009 Yeti DJ

I'll play again, and how's this for diversity, my 11y old son's Yeti DirtJumper build.

The build is not retro, rather an ecclectic mix of parts of all ages, 5-10-15y old.
But there are some touches like the original dimpled Syncros headset and XY post.

The solid DJ geometry and bigger 26"wheels give the kid a real boost in confidence,

Now go ride ...

Enjoy!!

troje's 2003 Rocky Mountain Blizzard

Let's participate with some pictures taken today, one of the first great bike riding days in the Netherlands. The windmills are there as evidence . This 10 year old Blizzard frame is my regular rider and I've build it up with Hope hubs and brakes, RaceFace cranks, seatpost, stem and steerer, XT M780 gear and a Sid that gives 100mm of travel.

Seeing as I finally finished my Scalpel then I'll put it in the ring.
