"And one more thing… Years ago GT created the GTB, which stood for Generic Track Bike. It was an affordable and simple fixed-gear triple triangle track bike that developed a bit of a cult following in bike messenger circles. Given the current popularity of fixies and messenger culture, GT is re-releasing the GTB as the GuTterBall. It's not a mountain bike, but makes for a perfect townie, commuter or bar bike. It has a flip-flop rear hub with both an 18th freewheel and an 18th fixed cog, steel-reinforced horizontal dropouts, 48x18 gearing, high profile Alex rims, a custom fork and a retail price of $750."Friday, June 27, 2008

Specialize SX 2009
"This past weekend, we spotted Mr. Sloan riding what looks to be a new 2009 Specialized SX at Whistler in a nice bright orange color.The one he was riding looks to have a 1.5″ lower cup and a 1 1/8″ upper cup as well as a few other curvy modifications. We’ll see what the final production ones turn out like, but this one looked pretty complete!"
