Title: K2 bike website observations
Post by: Dennis on May 15, 2005, 01:56:18 am
any one check out the k2 website lately?

the tirade is gone. the razorbacks and attack/lithium series are both spec'ed with all SRAM drivetrains. No shimaNO on either of these bikes. WOO-HOO!!

maybe other bike companies will get the message that shimano is no longer the only way to go. its not that I have it in for shimano, but its nice to see that there are choices. I just hate to be forced into one thing.

wow....  :(

that was my first impression, not re the SRAM comp, just one Lithium and, and it comes with toe clips [smiley=worry.gif]

people wonder why we still have the older stuff, well it was mostly Pro~Flex, that's gotta be a reason ???

the razorback is stil a great bike, though

the razorback is a fabulous bike - my 2001 edition used to have sram9sl before it was upgraded to singlespeed!!

however.  I just wish I could actually buy a new one.  No one at K2 has been particularly interested in helping me out to buy one (K2 won't ship to the UK because of a previous problem with a distributor) .  I missed the razorback team that was on eBay Canada and am still stuck without one...  boohooo.!
