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

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!!!

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 ) 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.

im bmxing right now but in the spring im going into mtb is a 2010 gt Ruckus DX a good starter bike ?

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

Very helpful for my wife as she wants to start mountain biking!

nope, because…. your not going to put on nice clothing during mountain biking…. and muddy trails are the best…..

@xxshadow529 i wouldnt go for that its more of a jump bike, to go propper mountain biking i would go for a trek 7200 i have a cube ltd race but thats not a starters bike inless you got a bit of cash

loving the specialized stunt jumper bike !!!! i own a specilized p1am , 2009 , its pretty awesome, and im trying to get into DH.. but its hard, but i love it !

I REALLY wanna get into mountain biking. What would you recomend for $ 1,000 or under? preferably disc breaks. thanks.

@GustavJorgensen I’ve been riding for sometime now, and I have never had tireshields and have never had a problem. Even when I ride on really muddy or dusty trails, the mud and dust will travel onto the down tube, and onto your back. I don’t mind a dirty bike or a dirty shirt. My friend that i ride with does have them, and they are mostly for looks. I personally prefer no shields, but that’s just my preference.
