    Good on you for getting a bike!
    No, you wont need them, as you will get dirty mountain biking, its just part of the sport.
    Hope you have fun on your new bike :)

    Hey I´m about to buy a new bike. When you buy it, it doesn´t have tireshields so I thought I´d buy that too, but now I see you don´t have any either. Aren´t they neccesary (or however that´s spelled :D ) to keep your cloth clean? Now english is not really my native language but by “tireshields” I mean those plates of plastic above the tires preventing dust from jumping up on your cloths.

    Its funny how if you click on “snarwars” name to see his channel he’s flipping off “people who hate f-15′s and are racist” but he’s being a hypocrite by saying ” I dont need a mexican here, LOL”. He’s just a horny liitle kid too, look at all the videos he has as favorites, hahaha!!!

  11. amtzzero says:

    It’s funny how “snarwars” is making threats over the internet. What the hell is he gonna do? Throw punches through the monitor? Hahahahaha!!!!!!!

  18. PBlover14 says:

    I have no control what so ever sitting. its ridiculous. Im kinda new, but i got a question for you man, is holdin the seat between your thighs helpfull? haha sounds stupid but idk it kinda helps when im goin down.

  19. dirtrider2009 says:

    if you sit down more than 20% of your ride, you are not doing shit. i dont get the whole seat-up-your-ass idea. you have wayyyyy more control and power over your bike standing up. fatasses
