    Picked up my Giant VT-2 '04 Model Last Thursday. Spent the weeken
    finetuning the suspension and gears to my liking :

    Paid $2775 for it, not bad price

    Also got the new '04 Topeak HID Light for $500 +computer, rack etc

    Love IT

    Smooth as to ride, it almost just rolls up the hills :

    Just thought i would let u all know that it is a sweet bike if you ar
    looking at getting one

    Off for another night ride :cool

    Yeah I got one too. Only complaints are it suffers from chain suck when
    changing down to the granny. Not all the time just enough to be
    annoying. The rims are a little skinny for the 2.1 inch tires, I have
    already had 3 pinch flats, from rock steps and drop offs. Still a very
    sweet ride and enough suspension to get me into alot of trouble 🙂

    Where from? That sounds quite cheap. I might be thinking of the VT-1..

    Have you used this light much? How do you rate it? My LBS has a Nightpro
    Solarc for $600.

    Got the Bike from Local area: Drouin Cycles PH: 03 5625 2956, The Bloke
    name is Wil

    The Light is Bright as f**k!!! I only use it on low beam (only spar
    time is the night) and i keep getting flashed by oncoming traffic - min
    you i do have it adjusted correctly and the main beam is almost directl
    infront of me. 2 nights ago, a Truck flached me, kept his high beams o
    - so i thought cop this and flashed him back! bet he thought WTF! whe
    he went passed me " that was a push bike! " :

    Dont know about comparing it to the Nightpro, but it is very light, th
    globe is about an 1.5 inch in diamiter and is bighter than my car
    headlights, very good for trail riding :cool

    -

  5. That's good price. I met a guy on the trail on claimed he got his for
    $2600.00. Hard to believe!

    Hopefuly the 2005 model will have better colours!

    Later,

    ML
