[kaiser]

cjax's STS for me. Hard choice, but his is a classic setup from a great time for bikes when everything was a bit mental.

 

[Elev12k]

Ken's Xizang for making a Zoom stem look beautifull. Quite an achievement.

 

[Pickle]

Brettels Avalanche for me.

Straight forward, clean, no frills, just get on with it bike

However, whats with all 3 going in???? :?

 

[Archangel]

For me it was a choice between exbiker's Bravado and GT-Heini's Xizang.

I'm not a big GT fan and I think the only GT worth owning is a Xizang. However, since a Manitou fork is totally wrong for GT, I chose the Bravado...

 

[Void(EN12-82)]

For me it was SLIM's RTS

Simply because it's the one I always wanted Nice build, not overdone with pimpy parts and it looks a real rider's bike. Still hope to get one of these some day...

[OrangeRetro]

Hmmm, I really like fritzlite's Tequesta but I have to give my vote to cjax's STS. Nice clean build!

 

[Geoff]

SLIM's RTS for exactly the same reasons as Void. Good stuff!

 

[cherrybomb]

OK I know I'm a bit late with this, but I've benn rushing around with work so forgive me for being cheeky....

Here's some better pictures of the Karakoram K2 at last! :roll:

NOt bad for an 80's child.

MODS: Please feel free to delete these if they brake any of the rules.

 

[Croydian]

It has to be Crayon's Avalanche for me. Every year a crowd of us do a three day Sustrans type Tour (24 of us this year) and every year old Frankie the plumber grinds out the course on his Avalanche that looks like Robinson Crusoe's bike. Last year he'd even fashioned a pannier rack out of a piece of driftwood!
It's nice to see one as Gary Turner intended though, vote for crayons!!!!!
