i didnt do mountain biking to attract chicks. besides, all the sun burn is quite a big put off for them.
i joined dodgeball cos of the chicks Added on December 2, 2009, 11:17 pm QUOTE(timothyy @ Dec 2 2009, 10:55 PM) Wah... I am impressed you know so many brands. Ha! Ha! Ha! it was an analogy. besides, "Best bike" in category is high subjective. some bike companies dont have alot of money to sponsor riders to championships, that doesnt mean they dont make "the best bikes". when it comes to top level competition, what's more important is the setup of the bike. GT is known to have relatively heavy i drive suspension systems, but that didnt stop brian lopes from winning. also, most important to winning competitions is the rider, not the frame.

Don't think xand fancy BBM though... another thing is, driver 8 isnt the best in its category. its just a freeride bike. if u wanted best in DH category then that would be the v10. another thing. i would think that by having a Bugatti i wouldnt have any problems attracting chicks.
