Post My Bike Pics
Lets post pics of our bikes.

My Bike was Made By Billy Briggs GT-Factory Build Master, and was Given to me by Dwight "Snarlin" Garland, Multiple Gravity Bike World Champion and Guinness World Record Holder For Gravity Bike Top Speed. This was the best gift I ever received and this bike took me to the Championships in 2002.

It is a Four Link Rear Suspension Bike with Hanebrink Forks (Dan Hanebrink is the God Father of our sport and has been building custom gravity bikes since the sport started in the early 80's), and Hayes Disc Brakes A company that has supported our sports through rider programs for over ten years. It was also the last Bike to leave the GT-Factory before the company was sold. It has full Kneel-er Trays that extend from the Knees to the feet keeping the rider completely separate from the rear suspension

This bike has great historical Value because of these factors. Everything about this bike comes from the roots of our sport. The suspension is amazing and it rides like no other bike I have ever taken down hill. Today she is hanging on my wall surrounded by the trophies she helped me win.

Too old for bmx at 27??!!
I didn't start racing bmx until just after I turned 49!

Nice to see that you're interested in gravity bikes though.
Prepare to become addicted at building them.

Cheers,
JW

Too old or maybe just too scared to get used to riding a wee bike again.
I'm more into going fast nowadays.
Going on holiday next week but once I get back il get a brake fitted and try it out.
Don't think there's a huge gbike scene in Scotland but a few of my friends are maybe going to build bikes too.

Actually, there isn't a huge gbike scene anywhere, but that doesn't stop the few of us from building and riding them.
Now, I just have to get back to riding mine...
