Holy K2 Batman!!!
« on: January 07, 2010, 12:34:16 pm »
This K2 Comp topic came up on Retro Forum, and an old photo popped up. Look for the K2 logo to the left of the banner, right next to the START. This would date k2's involvement in biking to early 1980s.

I am starting to lessen my disdain for K2 as a company. :D

It's from the book: "Stumpjumper; 25 years of Mountain Biking"

It's a real cool book of the history of MTB and off course the Stumpjumper.
