Everything about that picture looks good. Van, bumper, rack, bike...
That's a hardcore trail bike. No suspension and fixed gear. Impressive. I don't recognize the frame. I thought it was an Epic, but the top tube and the seat stay are in line with each other and I'm not seeing an Epic that looks like that. Enve carbon front fork? I used to run an Ardent Race as my rear tire and was pretty happy with it. Then I switched to a Vittoria Agarro and I'm not looking back. Mazza up front. _________________ '87 Syncro

It's a S-Works Stumpjumper, single speed specific 29er. I race cross country on this bike, but I do have a full suspension Epic I ride too. I just prefer this bike for quick 2-3 hour rides. It's a blast. |

I didn't realize the Stumpjumper came in a hard tail. My brother had a full sus Stumpjumper at one point, that was a nice bike too. _________________ '87 Syncro

Ditched the VW Rack for some RMW swingouts and I'm very happy with their quality. I will be adding a storage box and a few accessories in the coming months.

Here is my Syncro right before it went over a 200 foot embankment.
Numerous attempts from an expert rescue team.
At the end of the day, she still went over the ledge. Here is a picture of me the following morning retrieving my Syncro out of the ravine. Surprisingly I was able to back it up, drove it down the gulch and drive it home without any over heating or steering issues. Can Vanagon get a woot woot??
