£1000 bike ideas

I do indeed.

A demo 9, an enduro and a Norco torrent hardtail, although its bit harsh on my old bones :D

Photo of the Demo as it was when I was building it, now got a set of 06 888 RC2x forks on it, and got rid of the incredibly heavy (yet good) Intense tyres for some Maxxis.

if i can ever afford to go back to mountain biking a demo 9 would be top of my shopping list .

used to love riding my mates

They've cancelled them for next year, Demo 8 and 7 (new) only. :mad:
They've changed them vastly too. http://www.nsmb.com/gear/spec07_05_06.php

They didn't have a 9 this year either. :(.

I wouldn't be bothered about the weight of a DH bike, Id rather make sure it didn't fall apart tbh. ;)

They did in the States just not in the UK, fully phased out next year :(

Haha, no danger of this thing falling apart, the tyres were great apart from the 7lbs of rotating mass made them hard to get going. On the plus side I managed to run them with 0 psi in them and they still worked and I could barely tell the difference! :eek:
