if you don't want to upgrade look on e-bay to get the stuff you need. Or i guess if you want to upgrade you can look there too. I have had my K2 Sidewinder all summer without a prob. paid about 160 for it.

Are there anymore Sidewinder owners here in Denver? As I said before, I am beginning to feel like the lone ranger without a Tonto.
Nobody in the mile high city has even heard of this bike, let alone seen one. My e-mail is jrchefmail@yahoo.com
As for the upgrades, I think I might just do the brake calipers for convenience and fun, but the rest of my bike seems to work perfect for me.

Hey hows it going?

I too am looking online for some good stuff to read on about my new K2 Sidewiinder. I just bought one here in Denver (Englewood) CO. at Sport Authority. I paid $399.99. They had listed it for 499.99 Orig $599.99. Event Runs 04/21/2007.

How I walk out of the store with it f/ $399.99? I don't know. Even though I had read others bought their bike f/ $300.00 some time back around 2 years ago. I did read all others wrote on this forum and pretty much all where good stuff. Their was only 3 at Sports Authority and they had buffed them up with the latest brakes and thumb action gear levers.

So, i just bought mine yesterday and like others, @ the "Spare of the Moment" whats up with that? where do you ride? i live in castle rock. i am looking to check out my bike very soon, i think at Lakewood off 470 and almeda. know of it?

Ricky

not a clue, i just moved to Des Moines a year ago and haven't gotten out much since. There are a ton of paved trails around here but nothing even with hills. I guess there is one place that is down by the river but it sounds iffy. Good luck with your new ride, i got mine a year ago but i bet i haven't even put 100 miles on it yet. Welcome to the club!

Ben

I also just got a k2 sidewinder as an impulse buy at my local sports authority. I'm not sure what year model it is, but it has disk brakes and the shimano lever gear shifter. I got the one year extended warranty from them for an extra $23 in total it all came out to $400. I am totally new to biking but am glad I found this post with lots of good reviews on it. I will definitely need to take in to get the brakes adjusted as the rear brake is way to loose. Any other riders from Phoenix, AZ? Was wondering if there any good places for people new to mountain biking to see what it is all about.
