Well lets start with the fact that I really dig most of the bikes put out by Rocky Mountain. Except that funky ETS-X... I never liked that bike. Anyhow, I saved my pennies and when I returned home from Afghanistan in 2004, I bought a Slayer. It was everything I wanted and more. In '08 I bit the 29er bug and bought a Haro Mary SS to test the waters. Well lets just say I not only took a drink of the kool-aid, I drank the whole pitcher! Sadly about a year later some scumbag stole my Slayer as it was chained to my bike rack the night before an out of state camp/bike trip. Since then I have just been riding my the SS Mary. With the recent purchase of a new (to us) home, I am now in riding distance of work and have started commuting. You know, SS is great on dirt, but not so great on the street. It's just geared too low to maintain a decent speed. So....
I was browsing ebay one night (yes I know how dangerous that can be) and with a few short strokes of the keyboard, these two beauties were on my doorstep a few weeks later!
This one is mine, a never built 09 Hammer 29er. Sweet 725 Reynolds steel, eccentric BB, rack and fender mounts.
This one will be for my wife. RM Blizzard. Super sweet Reynolds 853 steel and I love the paint.
