Is that a Surly Instigator? If so, how do you like it??

Yeah, that's an instigator. It kicks booty, that sequence was shot on its maiden ride, so obvously I was feeling pretty comfy on it right away. It is definately an awsome ride for urban and dirt jumping. I took it to wirth and the front end felt a little squirly on the tight ST, but then when I took it to Leb it hooked up fine, (I personally think Leb is straighter and faster though), maybe it was becuase I had ridden it a little more and was adjusting.

It is stiffer than all get out, due to being over built, and my back took about a week to get used to that after riding a FS all summer. But this also makes the for a lively and fast responding ride, as soon as you step on the pedal it starts accelerating.

Weight may be a draw back for some, it's over 30lbs I'm guessing, but I don't mind, I can still rally with it, plus I know it is bomber, so I can huck it without thinking twice.

I ride it everywhere; urban stuff at the U & DT, dirt jumping, Leb, Wirth, it's a sweet "freeride" hardtail, truly capable of everything from hucking to climbing. Too bad I might have to sell it to finance the big rig I want to buy.:cryin: :banana:
