2009 gary fisher superfly 21 inch
everything is stock except for…
industry nine stans 355 rims
Thompson masterpiece stem and elite seatpost
Salsa lock tight grips
Sella Italia flight… with flaming eyeballs
Fsa carbon bar
Some egg beater candies
Sooooooo fly

My shop “friends” decided that the bike would perform much better with a hot dog and some bearings in the seat tube
Unfortunately I picked up the bike about a week after this decision had been made
My bike smells

Enjoy!

just a question how tall are you? im looking at a Superfly and seem to be inbetween sizes, at six foot i think a 19 would be the go but the 17 seems ok aswell

 

[M_S]

Ah yes, the joys of working in a shop. I remember one incident with a tuna sandwich and a steerer tube...and a month's vacation.

My advice is to clean that out asap.

 

[PanFry]

I might choke slam someone for that.

Just sayin'

PF

Nice Bike Though.

My GirlFriend jumped when she saw where you put your running shoes !

Nice bike! I hope we see a lot more carbon HT 29er's on the market soon.

 

[MisterC]

hold the phone.

do you have the stock wheelset but are running the stans?

for sale?

XT crankset can't be standard surely?

XT crankset can't be standard surely?

it is.

Unfortunately yes, and i dont see why? EVERYTHING else on the bike comes from the SRAM factory, bar the fox fork ofcourse, so why on earth would you spec the bike with XT cranks? on a plus note they are lighter than the previous bontrager carbon cranks that made an appearance on the superfly

Aside from being lighter, stiffer, stronger, and having a better tooth profile for better shifting up front, there's not really any advantage to the XT cranks.

for the guy who is 6 foot
i would say that a 19 would be preferable
assuming that your body is in regular propotions

 

[6thElement]

Didn't realise the Bontrager cranks were so portly.

 

[moabiker11]

sorry wheels are not for sale
they are my spares just in case my 355s dont hold up
if i do put them up for sale i will put them up on mtbr
thanks a lot for the intrest

Hmm... There's something you don't hear everyday.:skep:

 

[moabiker11]

ya the xt cranks look kinda funny i would love to put a crank that is a 180mm on there...
thats a good length for me
but i do agree that the xt is a big upgrade from the bonshwager
as far as i am concerned the only bontrager parts worth keeping on that bike are the wheels
i got rid of everything else
