[mamadirt]

Can you tell what it is yet?

 

[Lysander]

It's a bike!!



I know these things.

 

[mamadirt]

Damn, didn't think you'd guess

It's bright

An Al-Mega eh? Prefer the steel myself, but that's just me...

 

[mamadirt]

Nope, not Al-mega - I prefer steel too and that toptube is huuuuuge. Wait a sec . . .

 

[Sithlord]

Is this one of those T24's ?

 

[mamadirt]

Sure is

Never realised how much I'd wanted one until I did a search on here before buying and my name appeared on almost every thread . There had been a few conflicting bits of info on the '24' part of the name but I can confirm that it does indeed refer to the standover clearance and not to the wheel size. Finally, after 20 years of mtbing, I shall be able to bail out forwards instead of jumping off the back

My wife is only 4'11" and I've always wanted one for her, sadly they never seem to come up when I have any money....

PLease PM me if you ever want to pass it on......

 

[mamadirt]

Will do Rob. With my track history, my husband said to me when I bought it "Why don't you just tell the seller to hang onto it for a couple of weeks and then he can send it straight to the person you sell it to next week" - he knows me too well . Reckon I'm going to enjoy getting used to it though . . . now how does one ride 'arse high, nose low'? Watch this space for the crash reports.
