N + 1 = MTB!

I went shopping at the MBC Warehouse sale today for a hydration pack and to see what other odds and ends they had and I came away with this:





It's a 16" Kona Cinder Cone with similar specs as that linky but with different shocks, hydraulic disc brakes and umm stuff! :D I have to get a fit done on it, but I suspect that will pretty much only be a new saddle. I will take more photo's tomorrow in daylight.

This is a prime example of why I try to avoid bike shops... I bought my road bike when I went looking for tyres for my hybrid... Ahh well, another bike at half price - can't complain about that! :D

Oh, and I remembered the hydration pack - it was half price too! :D

Nice :)

Last Thursday I managed to snag a dual suspension Kent Trail Machine MTB, sans wheels for the grand total of $10 (yes, ten!). I put some wheels on it and replaced the rear brake pads, and did 70 km on it on Sunday.

Best (and cheapest) mountain bike I've ever owned :)
