Title: Re: bike of 2005 Post by: -chris- on December 17, 2005, 19:33:18 PM Scotts new road bike.......880g frame!!!
Demo's probably the most popular/ biggest selling of the year- 05 Big hits aren't exactly bike of the year are they lol. Like someone above said maybe 03 when they really took off but I haven't even seen an 05 yet. It depends what you meant though, nicest to ride, biggest selling, lightest, strongest, most travel....... Title: Re: bike of 2005 Post by: billy boy on December 17, 2005, 19:35:41 PM you havent seen a 05 bighit because they only bought them out in the states. ;D

iron horses are my one best bike! but not a best buy at 1700 for a frame! Title: Re: bike of 2005 Post by: Balfa man on December 22, 2005, 11:37:56 AM It has to be the Balfa BB7, more race wins than any other bike in 2006.
Plus its got value for money on its side compared to most other DH bikes out there of the same caliber. Not that im biased.

and ancillotti of corse ::) Title: Re: bike of 2005 Post by: Joe on December 23, 2005, 19:58:28 PM As Dirt Said it has to be the Sunday. Next year will be Oranges again with the 224 as it IS that GOOD.
Sam Hills results speak volumes. |
