Is there a sentimental bond?

Tossed and turn in my sleep that night
Woke up the next morning
Niggaz done stole my bike
Different day, same shit
Ain't nothing good in the hood
I run away from this bitch
And never come back if I could

Hate it or love it the under dog's on top
And I'm gon shine homie until my heart stop

So yeah... no bike.

^ Why those bikes looks like they're constipated?

Get the Klein Ian!

It has the best suspension forks and Klein frames are supposed to be excellent, and you get the custom paint job.

You must have been saving the pennies up for a while, you lucky bastard

my parents have split & my dad says he'd rather split the cash between me & my brother now (negligible amount between 8 and 15k) so I'm going to get my dream bike & do some serious mileage. I Like the Klein, and i've always wanted one, but the rock lobster is ti frame, and i've always wondered about the ride they're meant to give. The trek is cheaper but I kinda like it too.


Posted by RickyM on Apr-27-2006 15:51:

Yeah the titanium frame is a big draw for that one, but the forks seem better on the other two bikes. And Trek Bikes always seemed to strike me as quite 'conservative' and standard, I don't know why. The Klein would be the one I would go for. If you do get it... can I have a go on it??

Looks like the Ti has the best brakes though, after reading the specs, with the Trek coming in last. It's definitely a tough one, but its a decision I'm sure you don't mind making

Haha, it might be worth some dough at a vintage sale.
