ive had it for a month so yeah. i cant wait for the weather to get nice so i can ride more often. oh and this isnt tyler's pinkbike anymore. im his cousin andrew and he let me take over his pinkbike because it wouldnt let me start one. im still up for riding though, i could always use more riding buddies.
for one the bottle rocket doesnt even have 6 inches of travel and i know it can go big but it wont be as plush. and a stinky would be way better downhill. its almost a downhill bike. i do know a little about what im talking about im no expert but i know well enough what colt and i like to do with our bikes and i just dont think it will be as comfortable of a ride and i know there are way better bikes for him than the bottlerocket. my dad rides a 5 inch travel bike and i know it would be brutal to do all those things colt and i do with it. it would wear me out way faster and it wouldnt be as nice of a ride.
no its not. but the stinky is better for downhill and drops and the extra travel is very forgiving which is what we aim for. i ride with colt every weekend and we both love having extra travel for the bigger stuff. a bottle rocket just isnt going to give colt the forgivness and confidence to become a better rider. if colt wanted to go street riding all the time then id say go for it but he likes steep downhill speed. colt and i have been riding together for almost two years and we are best friends. and friends dont let friends make costly nistakes like buying a bottle rocket and then every thing gets harder to do and then loses confidence.
colt, ive known you for a long long time. weve ride together alot, hell we pretty much only ride together. but you and i both know that you wont even be able to come close to ride that bike the way it was made or come close to what its capable of. and yes i know that i cant do what my bike is capable of either. but i admit im a panzy and i dont need that much bike. so spare me the poser talk.
