Pinkbike.com's 10th Anniversary Contest - Week 1

Posted: Jan 30, 2009

Wow is it already 10 years?! Seems like yesterday that Pinkbike.com was simply a message board for local riders to post where to meet for the next ride and to share their riding stories from the last great adventure. We are celebrating our 10 year anniversary by giving away amazing prizes in the next 50 weeks!

Check out our first big prize give away inside:

Our motto since the beginning has been "Share the ride" and that is what we want to do with all of our users. We want to thank you for making Pinkbike.com the number one place to get Mountain Bike content on the internet. Now enjoy the contests and good luck to every one.

Happy Trails!



Norco bikes have stepped to the plate with a 2009 4Hun Frame and it could be yours. Thanks Pete, Dustan and J Dunc for helping put this together!




Please visit the contest page at www.pinkbike.com/contest to learn how to enter. Winner will be announced on Monday, February 9th.

Gee it must be nice to be able to turn down free stuff recklessness, heck if you don't like the bike why even make a comment? As for the bike not frame not being worth the effort to click a few buttons, well that makes me happy I don't have to work with you.
Personally I would love to own the frame, I would retire the ol p1 frame and build up the 4Hun and have a full Norco stable, A-line, Fluid LT, and a 4Hun. Then my Ryan Leech Moment frame and my P1 frame on the wall

Just a heads up I think this is kind of a trick question, I'm sure boyko had a custom frame made to suit his needs. There was a wright up about his bikes on the Norco site.
  • - 1
flag odin333 (Jan 31, 2009 at 14:56)
notice how it says he rides a medium and he is a factory rider and they hint you to go look at the bikes page on the Norco site were it says the wheelbase? its not really a trick question, more of trying to get everyone to visit the Norco site.

flag ascentrider (Jan 31, 2009 at 9:39)
I may be overthinking this but since Boyko runs a different fork then what the wheelbase is measured with shouldnt we have to take into account the different axle to crown height and different crown and axle offsets?
  • + 0
flag dkidd (Jan 31, 2009 at 10:04)
Ummm... how about the fact that Norco makes 14 different steel hardtails... in size M.
(only 5 of them are realistic for Boyko to ride, but still...)

flag karl-burkat (Jan 31, 2009 at 11:40)
The box will say you are entered regardless. Its hard to automatically check if someone is right because some people enter in the correct answer differently, some people in mm, some in cm, some in inches, some spell it out...But so far roughly 75% are correct.
