Acronymfinder! Genius!

Sould we have 'Marin made in 91 and sold no later than august 92 to people called Dave and welded by Frank the Monkey on a friday afternoon with a minimum spec of LX'.

No question. Cool. No wait, Thursday's bikes were cool. Or was it Friday mornings' bikes no earlier than 09:58 but no later than 11.37?

No more "Marin" type polls, thats all I ask!

The topics have been deliberately generic thus far. The debate is better if opinion is split which is of course more easily done with a wide subject . However point taken, will start having more 'focussed' selections along with the generic.

Yes I did note that some have been specifically generic to create a bit of debate amongst forum members and I like the the discussion they create, but its nice to mix things up a bit and ask the question are Magura rim brakes cool etc.

I don't know about the cool wall. I know it's in the spirit of fun, but for a forum community that has a history of trying not be be judgmental (all the past issues with VRC comes to mind), running this voting contest sure flies in the face of that.

If I owned and loved a Raleigh, I may have a bad taste in my mouth after that voting result. Seemed there was a bit of bad blood going around with the GT results and how that played out as well.

The coolwall is meant as a bit of fun, something to generate a bit of discussion and debate. I think it does this quite well, it's my perception everybody goes into this with reasonably good spirits. It has certainly yet to plumb the depths that VRC did in some of it's darker 'pre-split' days.

Sure, seems a good idea to mix things a bit.

Yes a more defined subject for the cool/uncool debate would be better.

Coolness is hard to judge. I think cool is different to everyone. I am struggling to put into words what cool is. I will have a think for while and post later i think!

Does it matter? This whole site is for fun. As long as we like the mtb's we own then who cares if it's un-cool or cool. If you take chat rooms to serious then you have problems.
