Re: What kind of bike do you have?
I have a few.
Trek 9700 OCLV hardtail (current primary bike) AlpineStars Al-Mega XT (currently a frame/fork only, needing to be re-built) Jamis Dakar Expert (frameset, hopefully arriving today)  The Jamis is a multi-link full suspension frame with a horst link, so it should be a good cross-country ride. |

I have a 2005 Kona Cinder Cone with Avid Mechanical Disc brakes (instead of the Hayes Hydraulic). The Avids are sooo easy to deal with and work great!

Re: What kind of bike do you have?
Hi. My first post here, I'm just getting back into MTB after a few years out. I'm currently building a bike based around a Merlin Malt 1 frameset, Zoom DH650 forks (yeah I know), with mostly LX and XT group. It's gonna be sweet

Re: What kind of bike do you have?
Old GT XCR5000. Its aight. Does its job well, but I'm looking to upgrade when funds allow. Either a Santa Cruz Blur, maybe an Ultralight, or one of the 06 Scotts that are supposed to be coming out...

Re: What kind of bike do you have?
Howdy!
I'd be interested in purchasing your Al-Mega as my components are attached to a now defunct Alpinetstars frame (1 1/4 headset, XTR for a 93 Al-Mega) which has a busted bottom bracket weld. Are you interested in passing this to another rider for a re-build? Standing by for word...Comnaver. Quote:

Ahh, that was my first serious bike, and I'm kind of sentimentally attached to it. I'll get it built back up eventually. It was going to be this year until I got that FS frame. I've got the broken part repaired, and I'll probably get an adapter so I can use a 1-1/8th fork on it. Once I get the Dakar built up, most of the components from my 9700 will probably go in the AlpineStars because it was a considerably superior frame. I think we should petition AlpineStars to start building bikes again. |

Re: What kind of bike do you have?
Mine too. My Dad is their customs broker and I got a sweet deal on their first Al-Mega XTR. Polished aluminum and everything was beautiful.
Had to dispose of it as the head tube gusset failed. I'm hurting for another of the original E-stays for the ease of components swapping and lastly, I have a ride for Diabetes this month and no bike. Please consider selling to a faithful A-stars rider. I'll take good care of her and she'll get a grade six polish before I strap on the full XTR kit with cross-max's and a re-built mag-21. True retro! Standing by for word...Andrew (Comnaver) Quote:
