Default My New Set of wheels.

Hey everybody. Just picked up my new bike!... well used... new to me...

For those of you that know biking, its a 2003 Banshee Scream Freeride/Downhill bike. 8" front and rear travel. some specs are:

Super T pro Fork
5th Element shock
Hayes Brakes
FSA cranks, stem and bar (oury grips)
Shimano XT rear D
Double Track rims front and back
Chris King headset
Axiom platform pedals
telescoping seat post
Mavic tires



Im stoked to get out riding!

As for the honda, it currently on the backburner sitting in my garage as I have received a company 2003 F250.

Not the nicest, best looking or fastest. But its the cheapest car i will ever own. I pay for no gas/insurance.

Sadly the civic will probably be sold within a month.

That's a sick bike, bud.

If I weren't on the market for a street bike, I'd be curious as to where you got it.

Hehe, I was thinking along the lines of a Schwinn Letour GSX. Although, a ZX-12R would be nice.

Thanks for the opinion, but I really don't have an interest in what you think.

Exercise, in my case. It's good for me, because my feet are 100% arch-less. Running actually causes huge pain on my ankles.
