Coming from someone with an equally successful career... Oh wait, the only reason anybody knows you exist is because you complained about the Whistler EWS race. Besides writing occasionally edgy/slightly funny posts, you bring nothing to the table and nobody wants to see you ride a bike.
I enjoyed Semenuks Rampage run and I enjoyed the sword dancing, so yeah I get it. Most readers prob don't.
Nice blogging as usual, I was at the trail The other day and people were talking trash about Specialized and Trek, but saying all kinds of good things about Felt. That's Team Robot, that's effective blogging right there! Go get em buddy! Nobody is blogging harder about the Decree model.
Can't wait to see the new proto-status DH bike you've been testing for them for your World Cup tour next year, But in the meantime I found this Felt DH bike for sale on pinkbike:
http://m.pinkbike.com/buysell/745137/
2007 FELT D8.5 Downhill Bike (European Spec)I am selling my DH rig as I never got into DH riding as much as I thought I would as I am more of a XC rider.It bike is in superb condition, I only rode it 4 times for a total of less than 100 miles.This bike is built to ride and has an awesome 8.5" of travel on the front & the back & is a one of a kind (in the US at least).This bike is just hanging in my garage wants to be ridden.Apart from some scuffs there are no mechanical or structural defects,the rear brake resoviour needs a little fluid as it had been hanging in my garage too long (brake still works perfectly, but a little soft)As sad as I am to part with this bike, I know that someone will have much better use for it than me.I have come to the realization that I can't justify keeping it around as I haven't even ridden it since 2008.You don't want to have a ride that just looks like everyone else?The FELT D8.5 was never available in the States so if you want a one of a kind ride... this is the bike for you!It is a European Spec'ed bike that was brought over before FELT USA had their line of full suspension Mountain Bikes.Size is Medium \ Large.The frame alone on this bike was 1995 EURO + add about $1K for the Rock Shox Boxxer Fork End... you get the picture... we are talking some serious $$$.

I've noticed a lot of guys buy DH bikes and don't get into it as much as they thought they would.
Ever ask the question why not?
1 lack of DH trails to ride-they don't just appear once you buy the bike 2 lack of riders to ride with-You assumed people would want to ride with you cause you have a cool red DH bike. It's an ego thing. You have to be a person, not just a cold metal bike. 3 time 4 injuries-Yeah you got f'd up because you didn't acknowledge it's a danger sport for stunt riders only 5 girl time. 6 It's not easy 7 alcohol 8meth 9 bad disc brakes or other bike related mishaps 10 No vehicle to transport heavy bicycle with low seat.

Brandon Semenuk creeps me out. Something about him is just...weird.
It's that vibe. Focus group-approved in every dimension, like a political candidate's appearance and sound bites. Perfect for a world where parents check the treats before their children accept them at each Halloween door.
@8:08 hey guys. self proclaimed advanced skateboarder and bmx rider here, mountain biking needs to be more like skateboarding and bmx with less "bullshit" and more fighting and drinking and not giving a fuck!!!! yt!!!! no fucks given!!!!! fest series!!!! metal mondays!!!!! Early 2000s bmx!!!! please like me!!!!
@11:40pm: please STFU about the Felt DH bike, or lack thereof. You must have written like 9 posts about this "topic" that no one gives a fuck about. Kill yourself and stop making dull comments on this blog.
Charlie......how come you don't talk about KILL LISTS anymore?? Is it because you think the FBI might put you on their watchlist of people who make regular death threats on the Internet ? FYI - Your probably already on it anyway.........
Would be fun to see Charlie lay into the pro's like this guy does for surfing. http://www.surfline.com/surf-news/lewis-samuels-analyzes-the-wsl-top-34-after-the-eighth-event-of-the-year-power-rankings-hurley-pro_131858/
@10:45, hey mr sissy anonymous, do you even know what proto-status means?
Google 'Felt DH bike' and get a clue!
Fact #1: Charlie is running a full World Cup campaign this year. Fact#2: Felt is currently working on developing a long, low, previously undisclosed mountain bicycle. Fact. #2. Charlie is a lock for the US World's DH team because of back door political bargaining with USA Cycling. Fact#3. Felt makes some of the worlds best bikes:
Fact #4. Charlie received a substantial sum of money recently and made dramatic marketing changes to the team anti-human website. Fact #5. Charlie finished top 10 at the usa cycling national championships, and finished top 3 at the 'real' national championships. Fact. #6 Charlie gets a lot of negative comments on here simply because of his racing success.
Put it all together and what you have is a bunch of player haters with poorly built frames who are likely pissed because they just missed the podium.
hey everyone. I have gotten the green light to get a Jamis Diablo 1.0 off Jamis but am a bit shy about the purchase. I like to test ride a bike before buying and there aren't any bike shops around with downhill style bikes, not to mention they aren't made anymore. I have an inseam of 32 and I am 6' Tall 145- 150ish. What size would you guys/gals suggest. I was thinking the 17.5 but I have never been on this style bike. JensonUSA still has 15.5, 17.5, and 19.5 sizes.I am trying to get more into freeride type riding with a bit of downhill so I think this would be a good buy. Then again there is always another great sale right around the corner somewhere. Jan 14, 2008

One of the local freeride galls here has one, and it seems to be very stout. Get the 17.5". I'm 6'6" tall, and would have to get the 19.5 so you'll be fine on the 17.5 I'm sure. Jan 15, 2008

I know how you feel my wife said the same when I bought my rig and upgrades,she really takes care of me,and thats a wonderful thing.I can not forget,but you'll love the bike and you won't regret.do you have specs on this bike,I know allot of companies stick there own pieces together so each store has different grade qualities to there bike,and how much are you spending on it if you don't mind this ?.you're probably getting a killer deal anyways ,but just for kicks it would be good to know so that you're getting your moneys worth,though you'll be getting that anyway because it's a jamis.

have you looked at jensonusa.com, there selling 06 diablo 1.0's for like 1500 complete. Jan 16, 2008
I just wonder if I should be looking for more of a freeride rig that can take some DH versus a DH rig that can take some freeride. Jan 16, 2008

Yep. That is where I am looking at them $1,389.00 shipping 35 Jan 16, 2008
jonny dhMonkey
your getting the right bike for the job all the components are the same as mine and I haven't had any problems with them but I wanted to get mine down to 40 lbs. so I spent some extra money to do so but what your getting is so worth it and if you decide to upgrade you have all sorts of possibilities for your rig Jan 16, 2008
StreamlineSpammer Extraordinaire
That figures. I don't remember where but I read that it was around 37.5 stock. What did you swap out for discussion purposes. Jan 17, 2008
StreamlineSpammer Extraordinaire
Pow! trigger pulled. I got the 17.5. I have gotten mixed suggestions but the deciding factor was the fact that the 17.5 is the most popular size so they would run out of those quicker. If I don't like this size I can return and buy the 19.5. I have been wanting to try a size down anyway, I am just glad JensonUSA has a good return policy. Jan 17, 2008
jonny dhMonkey
you'll like very much I'm just surprised that they stopped making it,it's a work of art just like any other bike that behaves like it should. Jan 17, 2008
StreamlineSpammer Extraordinaire
I'm really looking forward to its arrival. The first ride will be a bit scary though lol. Kinda like test riding a rig. If you may return it your scared to death that you might wreck it. I hope the 17.5 size works for me. Jan 18, 2008
ShovelheadChimp
How do you like the diablo? Is the size right? I'm considering the same purchase and am 6' tall also. Oct 25, 2008
StreamlineSpammer Extraordinaire
I actually love the bike. I have Upgraded the front shock to a Totem Coil and upgraded the drive to X9 components and it handles very nicely. I am unfortunately going to be trying to sell it soon. It is just to much bike for around here. I only get to ride it twice, maybe 3 times a year. I don't want to seem like I am spamming the boards but if your are serious about buying I am looking to sell mine with all the upgrades for $2,000 ish. If your interested talk to me through PM and I will give you list of what I changed out exactly. I will even throw in the original front shock as a spare if you like, nothing wrong with but some scratching and that is how it came from Jenson. I never rode the original front shock.Seriously this is a solid bike and sticks to the trail very nicely. If you don't want mine I highly suggest getting one from Jenson, it will just be lacking in the front shock and rear der and shifter dept.
Mike, that's like saying you have no credibility for misspelling having.
Chaz, are you teaming up with Gwinny to be part of the new YT world cup DH team or is there really gonna be Felt DH bike? Gonna be a crazy off season it feels like.
The spamming needs to stop if you want to maintain a loyal reader base here. I always feel obligated to read English comments and get sucked into reading about how a 6 foot tall guy buys a 17" because there were fewer in stock and could return it? Not interesting not funny nothing.
YT is making a big announcement soon about its new team for upcoming world cup season looks like are gonna take over the industry. The team will feature a top tier rider from California with a lot of world cup success. He will be switching over from FOX suspension to the BOS brand, with an upside down prototype air fork. It will also feature two young riders he will take under his wing to hopefully guide towards success. One of those young riders also plans on competing in Rampage next year. Specialized will be making a big announcement soon to sign a top enduro rider with 4 cross and DH World Championship success.
yeah hah hah derp derp everyone knows the real industry insiders are on ridemonkey, here's the racing form if you haven't made it to the bookie's today:
pinkbike: adolescents who want to buy your DH bike for a PS2 and a promise to give you their allowance each month for the next 10 years
mtbr: 30 to 90 year old hobbyists who really like the way a bike looks leaning up against a sofa
nsmb: Los Angeles with more rain and funny accents and 7.379% less plastic surgery
vitalmtb: 30 guys who raced BMX against each other about 20 years ago
TGR: dentists, orthodontists, architects, lawyers, quantitative analysts, hedge fund managers, pump-and-dump chumps, realtors, and the Leisure Class all fighting to let you know you're not on their level
ridemonkey: the heartbeat of the industry, the birthplace of bogus standards, stupid wheelsize and rim width fads, e-bikes, fatbikes, girvin flex-stems, the GT stinkbug, and the Christini AWD.

I just wonder if I should be looking for more of a freeride rig that can take some DH versus a DH rig that can take some freeride. Jan 16, 2008

your getting the right bike for the job all the components are the same as mine and I haven't had any problems with them but I wanted to get mine down to 40 lbs. so I spent some extra money to do so but what your getting is so worth it and if you decide to upgrade you have all sorts of possibilities for your rig Jan 16, 2008

That figures. I don't remember where but I read that it was around 37.5 stock. What did you swap out for discussion purposes. Jan 17, 2008
StreamlineSpammer Extraordinaire
Pow! trigger pulled. I got the 17.5. I have gotten mixed suggestions but the deciding factor was the fact that the 17.5 is the most popular size so they would run out of those quicker. If I don't like this size I can return and buy the 19.5. I have been wanting to try a size down anyway, I am just glad JensonUSA has a good return policy. Jan 17, 2008

you'll like very much I'm just surprised that they stopped making it,it's a work of art just like any other bike that behaves like it should. Jan 17, 2008

I'm really looking forward to its arrival. The first ride will be a bit scary though lol. Kinda like test riding a rig. If you may return it your scared to death that you might wreck it. I hope the 17.5 size works for me. Jan 18, 2008

How do you like the diablo? Is the size right? I'm considering the same purchase and am 6' tall also. Oct 25, 2008

I actually love the bike. I have Upgraded the front shock to a Totem Coil and upgraded the drive to X9 components and it handles very nicely. I am unfortunately going to be trying to sell it soon. It is just to much bike for around here. I only get to ride it twice, maybe 3 times a year. I don't want to seem like I am spamming the boards but if your are serious about buying I am looking to sell mine with all the upgrades for $2,000 ish. If your interested talk to me through PM and I will give you list of what I changed out exactly. I will even throw in the original front shock as a spare if you like, nothing wrong with but some scratching and that is how it came from Jenson. I never rode the original front shock.Seriously this is a solid bike and sticks to the trail very nicely. If you don't want mine I highly suggest getting one from Jenson, it will just be lacking in the front shock and rear der and shifter dept.
^ aren't you hilarious
@anonymous 3:53am -
You have no credibility for have two - fact#2's
Either way - I find your "facts" amazingly hard to believe .
Mike, that's like saying you have no credibility for misspelling having.
Chaz, are you teaming up with Gwinny to be part of the new YT world cup DH team or is there really gonna be Felt DH bike? Gonna be a crazy off season it feels like.
Gwin on ktm???
I make no claims- so I need no credibility.
The spamming needs to stop if you want to maintain a loyal reader base here. I always feel obligated to read English comments and get sucked into reading about how a 6 foot tall guy buys a 17" because there were fewer in stock and could return it? Not interesting not funny nothing.
"What did you swap out for discussion purposes?"
My brain.
Fuck all that. This is the follow up video that YouTube suggested for that clip. Kinda makes me feel like I'm watching Victor Lucas on a SRAM shoot.

Gwin on a KTM...braaappppp!!!
YT is making a big announcement soon about its new team for upcoming world cup season looks like are gonna take over the industry. The team will feature a top tier rider from California with a lot of world cup success. He will be switching over from FOX suspension to the BOS brand, with an upside down prototype air fork. It will also feature two young riders he will take under his wing to hopefully guide towards success. One of those young riders also plans on competing in Rampage next year. Specialized will be making a big announcement soon to sign a top enduro rider with 4 cross and DH World Championship success.
You read a bunch of pinkbike comments and now u r an industry insider
yeah hah hah derp derp everyone knows the real industry insiders are on ridemonkey, here's the racing form if you haven't made it to the bookie's today:
pinkbike: adolescents who want to buy your DH bike for a PS2 and a promise to give you their allowance each month for the next 10 years
mtbr: 30 to 90 year old hobbyists who really like the way a bike looks leaning up against a sofa
nsmb: Los Angeles with more rain and funny accents and 7.379% less plastic surgery
vitalmtb: 30 guys who raced BMX against each other about 20 years ago
TGR: dentists, orthodontists, architects, lawyers, quantitative analysts, hedge fund managers, pump-and-dump chumps, realtors, and the Leisure Class all fighting to let you know you're not on their level
ridemonkey: the heartbeat of the industry, the birthplace of bogus standards, stupid wheelsize and rim width fads, e-bikes, fatbikes, girvin flex-stems, the GT stinkbug, and the Christini AWD.

That was funny as shit, but 100% of what you're saying is 50% wrong
Charlie- you gotta watch this documentary . The whole entire Russian Olympic team in Sochi was doping!! Everybody! The waterboy was juiced!
And SPOILER ALERT: The HEAD of the WORLD ANTI-DOPING COMMISSION for Russia was really the RINGLEADER for ALL the DOPING!!! And what did I tell you about those pharmacies in Lithuania and Belarus....?!?! EPO delivered to your door like a pizza for $60 bucks ! !!!!' !!
