Heres my Giant XTC SE.

I dont know much about bikes but it does seem like a great bike for the money. I have bought a seat that is slightly wider, put handle bar ends on and the blue mud guard.
I am planing on buying a few extra bits for it like a wireless computer, small saddle bad, poss a rear mud guar in black and a rear dual drinks holder that hangs off the saddle.

I am doing the London to Brighton bike ride on this, this year! I will get some road tyres for it though.
Hope you like!

Thanks, it seems to do me well. I am hoping its up to the London to brighton though (the bike and me!)
With road tyres it shouldnt be to bad, but it certainly prefers the mud to the tarmac

I'm on sourtherndownhill.com

Liking the singlecrown shivers, Burnard! How much travel do they give you? about 130?

Does anyone go to blandford forum here? I've got a trip planned soon and it'd be cool to meet up with some
fellow mini owners (assuming mine has a front end by then!)

I ride DH on an Orange Patriot 7+, complete with triple crown Marz. Shivers. Quite possibly the heaviest bike I've ever used, but
it is a lot of fun! Rolls through most stuff like a tank on crack :)
Used to have an Identiti Dr Jekyll with some lovely shiny Hope bits 'till some scum robbed the house and made off with
it, amongst other things. Bloody thieving nobends....

Nice to see there are plenty of fellow mtb'ers here :w00t:
