Veus la imatges i penses, aquesta no és una foto d'un amateur, en cap cas.

36".

La bike està bé, segur, ja és de la casa, qui no la recorda, no aquesta, la taronja enfilada al yellow car?

MTB, MTB, MTB.

El retorn.

Va tenir una cloenda de jornada interessant.

MTB, MTB, MTB.

Groovy 29er retro bike.

 Llum.

Ja va ser motiu d'una proposta a The Great Escape MTB, per això com les 69er de Trek, aquesta per diferents motius que les 69er, sona bé a aquest espai.

MTB, MTB, MTB.

A on sóc? que ells en diuen retro i jo la veig, la sento actual, mtb, mtb, mtb.

Ecalfant motors.

Perquè el dia és de 10/10.

Arxiu.

Quina llum, quines ganes de pedalar, que més puc demanar? primer esmorzar.

MTB, MTB, MTB.

Dingles Speed Belt Drive.

  The Paketa mountain bike.

A casa, avui per avui no hi anirem, no, però com el 1x6 amb boixa específica Single, té un punt d'interessant, i tant que sí.

Fa poc a la recerca del manillar Groovy de la Longboard, vaig veure l'ENO Dingle, i atractiu ho és, molt.

MTB, MTB, MTB.

Hunter Bicycles.

Hunter bicycles.

"Built by Rick Hunter of Santa Cruz, it’s a fully rigid touring frameset with 29er wheels. It’s a combination that handles singletrack, corrugation and rough trails alike, without feeling too lethargic over longer paved stretches."

MTB, MTB, MTB. 

Aquesta bike respira diferent, molt diferent.

Intent.

El què ha estat avui. Primera enfilada a la Vicious després de dies de no fer-ho, mtb, mtb, mtb.

Demà miraré de consolidar.

MTB, MTB, MTB.

Vaig a preparar una breu crònica, o no tan breu,  de la sortida d'avui.

SSEC 2012.

MTB, MTB, MTB. 

JJ.

JJ.

La millor de les JJ,  en titani, millor encara, però al seu dia ens va confirmar que ja no pots disposar d'aquesta versió amb aquest material.

Les prestacions, de les millors, si el què has de fer no és escalar el 80% del temps. La realitat de cada biker s'escriu en singular, per això que el seu ús també.

Baixant, de les millors bikes rígides, per no dir la millor, el seu creador ho té clar, i ha portat a terme el què volia fer, no és una tasca fàcil aconseguir-ho, gens. 

MTB, MTB, MTB.

IF.

IF.

Aquesta no pel color, sí perquè és una magnífica creació, mtb, mtb, mtb.

Sóc a baix.

Vols que anem a pedalar?

Ho dic perquè ara fa una estona mentre en Josep marxava, m'he quedat puntualment entre les quatre bikes definitives de l'espai de casa. De fet són nou, però actives i amb possibilitat de sortir d'aquí a cinc minuts en són quatre. 

Les quatre, quatre? sí, sí, quatre, la de la Betty, la del meu germà, la d'en Josep, i al darrera, la de lagranevasio.

Quatre bikes per a quatre bikers, en diferents estadis, diferents estadis. El del meu germà que és el motor d'aquesta disciplina a casa, el motor, qui fa més de vint anys ja sortia sol, jo diria que trenta, o poc li faltarà, i a on a l'arròs de cada dijous a Can Font a Granollers, a Can Font del registre, durant cinc dècades, ell arribava ben rascat, somrient  i ben rascat, i jo pensava, que bé que s'ho passa el meu germà.

Han passat els anys, i com amb les bicis de carretera, el pioner ell, com amb les motos,  el pioner ell, com amb en les bikes, el pioner ell, a casa nem tots a roda seva, així de planer, així de senzill, en Xavier Font és l'arrancada de tot plegat, i des d'aquest primer principi, tot roda, i mai millor dit a aquest espai.

Quants anys millorant les bikes, li deia jo a en Josep fent el cafè a peu com cada mig dia, quines bikes que tenim, increible.

El nivell de bikes, el nivell de la construcció de cada un dels quadres, de les geometries, dels acabats fa que pensi que rarament perseguiré res de diferent que no sigui poder gaudir d'aquestes sensacions, sigui l'àmbit que sigui, ja n'hi ha prou de correr, des de fa una pila d'anys que ja no correm, oi que no?

Mentre en Josep recollia uns components, els darrers, que hem de tornar, mentre la porta del despatx es tancava, abans d'incorporar-me a la feina del despatx, he admirat aquestes quatre joies, les dues ASR-SL, la Long Board i la The Motivator, aquesta darrera no podria ser de ningú més, oi que no? aquest nom i m'adono avui que m'escau perfectament.

Un terme comentàvem mentre anàvem a dinar a peu, quan passàvem pel pont de la riera de casa, fer-ho bé i gaudint mentre ho fem, per això aquesta sensació amb les bikes, perquè, i seguint amb la conversa iniciada ahir a la nit, i que seguirà aquesta nit, aquestes bikes són el mirall dels seus propietaris, ni més ni menys, no són repetibles aquestes bikes, nosaltres tampoc,  són vives aquestes bikes, pel que fa referència a elles,  a l'evolució de cada component, pel què fa a nosaltres, que evolucionem cada dia.

Anem a pedalar?

Serà d'aquí a uns dies, oi que sí?

Ahir dia SSEC 2012 a BO.

MTB, MTB, MTB.

Reflexions.

De molta densitat les fetes ahir amb l'Oriol, una em va deixar glaçat.

Ens comprem dues Jeff Jones?

JJ.

Sort que tots dos tenim, dues magnífiques bikes, bé ell la bike entre bikes a punt d'arribar. 

MTB, MTB, MTB.

Mavic Helmet.

És el nou cas d'en Xavier.

Un aspecte del 10/10.

No és el primer de la llista de Mavic que ell volia, sí el primer amb la visera específica de MTB.

Sí ja ho sé, ara molts bikers ja no la portem, però cal ser prudents, per a MTB és la millor proposta, portar la visera.

MTB, MTB, MTB.

En posaré cròncica més detallada properament.

Un detall, no és lleuger, sí molt còmode, un aspecte important el casc és com el seient, en menor grau però cada cap com cada cul, és un món.

Milk.

Una Willits i aquesta Lenz, poc més a sumar, més varietat, no diré que no, millor proposta en cap cas, sempre hi ha sorpreses, sempre hi ha sorpreses agradables, i tant que sí.

MTB, MTB, MTB.

Mireu de memoritzar aquesta joia, i amb la Willits, passaran els anys, i no podré millorar aquestes dues aportacions, igualar-les, val, milllora-les, per a mi difícil.

Highball.

Nice.

MTB, MTB, MTB.

Interessant, un conjunt que diu, vinem a veure, vinem a veure.

IF.

IF.

Aquesta pel color, com el meu casc, el meu casc nou.

MTB, MTB, MTB.

BME.

 11 Kg.

MTB, MTB, MTB.

Crec qua una Single Speed amb aquest material podria ser una bike difícil de repetir.

OMG.

 Willits.

Una joia entre joies, la bike, la proposta, la bike en primer terme, així, obres el MTBR i veus aquesta bike, poques coses hi puc afegir, passades les hores segur que sí, ara no.

Aturat, quina bike.

MTB, MTB, MTB.

Perquè us en feu una idea del nivell, les bieles no són ENO, són XTR, sí, sí i no les 2003, mireu els tirants, decideix el plata i tira pel mig, mtb, mtb, mtb.

L'estètica amb protector de plat, comú als USA, no per a mí, tot i  que els tinc tots,  i els he tret tots.

De fet tinc fins i tot l'específic per a les bieles XTR 2003 de 102 mm. entre forats, per si de cas, o pel ja que hi som. Bieles que encara el poden portar, crec, mtb, mtb, mtb.

La millor proposta que jo recordi des de la JJ Diamond de titani, curiós perquè cap de les dues es fabriquen actualment.

Element Team.

Element team. 

La vaig gaudir  pocs dies, la Ibis va fer de les seves, marxant, que va fer que em decidís per l'arribada de la Rocky Mountain, i la tornada mesos després de la Ibis que va fer que marxés la Element Team.

El conjunt quadre forquilla, el més sensacional que ha passat per casa fina l'arribada de la Longboard. 

Però és que la Ibis Mojo Carbon pesava molt, oi no pel pes, 11 Kg. tocats amb una quadre de 2,650 Kg. si no pel fet que era una bike preciosa, diferent.

Però el seu destí era marxar de casa, mtb, mtb, mtb.

La forquilla de la Ibis, la Fox RLC 140, és la que ara porta la segona ASR d'en Josep, però passada a 120 mm. per adaptar-la  a la geometria de la Yeti del 2009 que permet portar 120 mm.

MTB, MTB, MTB.

Black Sheep Highlight 29er Ti Singlespeed.

 BS.

Una marca que estava a la llista, no als primers llocs, sí a la llista.

Ara, com a  independents, nosaltres, ells no ho sé, són més propers a ser candidat al podi, a quin calaix, no ho sé. Com amb la 69er. però no avui com a N1 amb la Black Sheep, compartint podi, perquè hi ha marques interessants, que per simplicitat i preu deixen a aquest fabricant i a d'altres en un mal lloc.

Que què vull dir? que una Vassago, senzilla, però senzilla de veritat posa amb seriosos problemes a aquestes ovelles negres, i a la resta de HM, i no ho dic per les repetides lectures sobre opinions d'altres bikers que també, si no per la percepció que tinc i he tingut veient-les totes de costat, la Vassago desprenia més personalitat que les Jeff jones i les Black Sheep, i no per que aquestes dues no tinguin un caràcter mil cops més marcat que les Vassago, en cap cas, si no per la simplicitat del conjunt Vassago.

No podem oblidar que som animals de costums, i a dalt de la bike hi som per pedalar, més o menys, sobre això no hi ha disputes, però per pedalar, amb les Jeff Jones, i les Black Sheep,  funcionant molt bé, la sensació no és la de les Vassago. Repeteixo, pedalant, i també  un cop a un lloc tranquil, assentats mirant les bikes, aquesta darrera els hi fa molt mal, molt.

Per què passa això? senzill, complicat, pel fet que les Vassago són una tendència, la mínima expressió, i les JJ i les BS una de molt diferent, que avui marquen, aquestes dues tendències els dos conceptes més significatius del disseny.

Simple vs Gorgeous.

69er.

Una bike que passen els mesos, els anys i sempre té el seu racó a aquest espai, i tant que sí.

Avui, Granollers, Sant Celoni, Salt, i possiblement Girona al vespre, serà protagonista.

Avui és Sant Josep, avui és Sant Josep.

Dia de MTB, a partir de la una del mig dia, perquè avui és divendres, sí, sí, divendres. I a la tarda dels divendres ja podem rodar, i no necessàriament amb les bikes, però sí per rodar, rodem bé entre setmana, molt i molt bé, i no amb les bikes que també, i divendres a la tarda, comença un escenari d'aventura diferent, com que aquest divendres és festa el dijous passa a ser divendres, és a dir a la tarda tornem a poder rodar, i no necessàriament amb les bikes.
