Yep

But not on DH,AM,Jump bikes.

Main reason I went with them went I started biking.

My first real MTB , (C'Dale M800) I bought back in 96' broke it two times , been replaced two times , still have it today.
Now in a form of a 2005 CAAD4. If it breaks again , they'll change it for whatever frame is up that year. As long as I still hold on to that original receipt.

Went for spin yesterday - my usual 10-15 mile trail.. Crashed HARD on a Little bridge. Not sure how, but after manualing over a curb-sized lip, the rear end launched me over the bars- I took it all on the face. Pics later- cant do it via iPad. Rung my bell- was watching for signs of concussion

It may be an improvement because it draws attention from your mug to the scratch I'm just kidding, glad you and the bike made it out ok.

Nice.

Right now I'm mountain bike in minus 10 degrees Celsius. The benefit of it is that with so much ice you usually doesn't get scraped if you fall!

I own a Bianchi Kuma 4600, nothing special but it gets the job done, maybe I'll get something more serious later on

I was actually rather bummed that no one witnessed the crash.
The face has healed up nicely- a dollop of natural petroleum jelly(left over from kids' diaper days)after showers, when the abrasion is wet & I am babybuttfaceman.

Here we had 1 meter (yes , 100 cm! ) of snow this week , so no bike for now.

Waiting for the snowmobiles to pack it up !

I still commute to work , but no MTB for now.

Ah, cool thread!
Before college started kicking my butt I raced a lot. My last racing season I won two Expert 19-29 races here in the south east.
I dont have a bunch of time to ride anymore but I do when I can.
