    At least you'll never get lost if you fall off in the woods and they send a rescue chopper look.

    I think it's a lovely colour scheme. Very tasteful.
    Nice build, should be a great ride. (I actually mean that bit)

    i just need a blue light now then :lol:
    it was quite a heavy bike when i first got it but i was suprised how well it climbed.i have spent quite a bit on it to get the weight of it down and its made it into a fanfastic all rounder.
    i had a carbon s-works stumpy before the alpine.the alpine is very close to that on climbs but a shed loads better on very fast going and downhill :D
