It came today!
I got my new red Wilder today! Sun double-wide rim. 3" Gazz. Primo magnesium super tenderizer's. Black rim, spokes and cranks, which are 175's(I'm lanky and like them for all the steep stuff I do). I've got a carbon fiber seat base for it with the SH handle, but I need to pad and upholster that before mounting it, so for the moment I've robbed the Velo seat from my Torker DX. I took it out today to a little hill that we use for Pecking practice,and was impressed with it. The Gazz grabbed the slippery surface better than my 3" Duro on my 26" muni. And it is just so much lighter and more solid! I reduced my best number of hops up from 10 to 7! I had to show it off at work tonight. People are impressed with the "pretty" red color and fat tire more than anything else. Profile doesn't mean anything to them. But I rode over the landscaping rocks around the hospital and off of the (steep) hill form the heli-port pad and they thought it was pretty neat, or they were really being nice to me, I don't know which. I would have posted a picture, but my computer literate son isn't home tonight.

Excellent! You will love it. The looks, light weight and solid feel are great, and the investment will make you ride better just to prove it was worth it. Someone else just got a new Wilder also... stay tuned. Scott -- S_Wallis - Back in the saddle "I am always doing that which I can not do, in order that I may learn how to do it."

What do you mean, you can say no more?! You're stringing us along, man! Let's have it out! Get it off your chest and you'll feel better! You've made some sort of committment, haven't you? If it's not for sure yet, you can tell us! Or is it that the wife doesn't know yet? She thinks it cost just a little more than the Torker?

I am sorry, I shouldn't have said anything and I don't want to hijack your thread. It is not mine, just wait a couple of days. Anyway, enjoy your new muni, it's a nice one. I look forward to the picture. -- S_Wallis - Back in the saddle "I am always doing that which I can not do, in order that I may learn how to do it."

Here it is in all its' glory. And that thing on top of it is me. I'm trying to hold on as it takes off!
