GrimGreg Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 Pathfinder ISNT gods gifts to 4x4.... but maybe if you did more mods than just bolting on a 250 lb piece of @!*% bumper, you wouldnt be getting stuck and pulled out by chevies. Maybe the problem isnt with pathfinders.... maybe it cause your @!*% is on street tires and front end heavy????? Maybe that is why he added the NISMO stickers?

vengeful Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 This thread has gone WAY off-topic and has gotten WAY out of line. You should all be ashamed. I thought that we were better than resorting to racism and bigotry on this forum, but I guess I was wrong! Go sit in the corner!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Precise1 Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 Agreed, that's why I closed it. Way to pack a punch V... I'll weed out the idiotic posturing and slander and unlock it. Post similar again and I will ban you for a period of time as per the site rules. If you have a problem with that, contact me or any Mod or Admin. Have a nice day and play nice, or else.

Precise1 Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 Well, I think it is trimmed back to reason where it can be a bike thread in a truck forum again. Lets just go ahead and keep it that way, right?? Thanks much. B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tekazgtr1984 Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 So I ride a '07 Norco Bigfoot. http://www.norco.com/2007bikes/templates/m...ew=&deets=1 Mine's in black though, and a I swapped out the front and rear derailleurs for front LX and rear XT. Oh, and I added a LED headlight for night-riding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

laxman0324 Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 (edited) I got a tent special called "Carerra" at Dick's like 7 or 8 years ago, full suspension... My dad got a bike by Columbia, I think it is junk...his old bike was called "Hammerhead" and that bike lasted many years and still rides well after some maintenance and what not...

Precise1 Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 So, honestly, I was looking at Trek bikes for a hard tail. I believe 8700 series carried decent components (disk front brakes, etc) and had a roomy geometry (6'1" with monkey arms). While I will ride hard some times, this is for street, trail and fun; no competition. What is the input on this series or something else I should look at? Thanks.

Precise1 Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 Ok, I'm old. I've never ridden a rear suspension bike that I liked. The a$$ end felt mushy. Period. I was riding mountain bikes when Richie and Cunningham started (same area) and the rest took off. The suspension was what tires and air you were running. I know, welcome to technology, but it doesn't feel right to me and I think it makes complacent riders. Front shocks I can live with, but the dive factor makes it hard to muscle through a curve.

(refrains from joke) B i personally don't like most mainstream trek bikes. they are on the heavier side, and are a bit ugly imo. to recommend a bike we need to know your budget. but if you mostly ride on the street, a hardtail would be your best bet. but if you have more money to spend, you can get a full suspension bike with an adjustable rear shock, or selectable lockout. at the very least you should at least get front suspension.

Simon Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 Oh...my bike..... A cheapy Haro hardtail. Worth probably ~$400. I paid ~$80CDN brand new. Got it from friend at work who won it, but is too short to ride it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamzan Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 Mine is something like this, I needed a cheap bike for a trip so I just picked it up at Canadian tire. I've beat on it and it somehow has held up. But 2 years ago the derailleur in the back got messed up went into the rim and the bike threw me off. I threw it into the storage and haven't looked at it since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
