    Santa Cruz must issue their paychecks. I wouldn't call Santa Cruz best of anything. They are poorly
    built. The machining on the tubes is awful. The welders often have to make up for the poor machining
    using welds that are huge, overstressing the tubes. Santa Cruz is a marketing company. It looks like
    the mag bought their commercials.

    Did you overdose on stupid pills? It's clearly obvious that whomever picked those bikes are morons,
    which only makes you moronic for parroting their idiocy. What a joke.

    The one that gets ridden, not sitting on a roof rack at trailheads or hanging in the garage of
    someone trying to be "stylish".

    No, the best bike is the one that gets ridden.

    Spider's Bike of the Year Award . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . The Castellano Fango!

    Why? Because that's what I ride.

    Just ride, man.

    Of course, your opinions on bikes you haven't even ridden are more credible, aren't they?

    Have you ridden a Jamis? They don't look too bad considering the price.

    The Jamis mentioned is not a bad bike. It is well built. handles nicely. I had the opportunity
    to throw a leg over one recently. It was not too bad. It was not my big hit. But not many bikes
    are either.
