Mic Hannah Bike Check
by brule
Posted: Jul 24, 2009
After taking a year off of racing to go back home, work for his father, start a family with his wife Hannah Hannah and go spear fishing off the shores of Cairns Australia, he's back on the World Cup circuit and tearing up the courses. Lots of riders have had to pick up the pace and watch Mic blast by on his new GT Factory ride, the full carbon Fury. Stepping back into the scene with a full factory set up from GT and SRAM, Mic is in the right mind set and equipment set up to do well.

The last few months on the road have been primarily spent in Colorado with his wife Hannah and their young son. Last weekend he flew out to an event in France and flew in on Tuesday for the WC round here at MSA. At 25 years of age, Mic is no new comer to the race scene, nor has he hit his peak. He had this to say about the course here at MSA "It's feeling good and fast right now and I'm not too worried about if it rains or not. Just put on some mud guards and fire some tear offs on your lenses and it's all good."

soooo..... how does the bike feel exactly?
like I said to leavenamehere, they feel very good. The techy stuff down the bottom makes it feel very different to what looks like a standard single pivot frame. GT make very nice bikes...
the BB hangs down. there is two attachments. one is on the rear swing arm, and the other is on the main frame. its somewhat hard to explain. GT has it all on their website.

the new gt dhi bike that came a little while ago i was super exited about. finally gt is back on track.
Too bad they're owned by Pacific Cycle, on its way to becoming the owner of the most bike brands in the whole market now that they have Iron Horse as well as Cannondale.
but pacific cycles do seem to have a habit of getting floundering companis back on track... i mean in the early 00's gts bikes were shocking and now there are getting pretty good again. and they have saved iron horse from folding as well as cannondale
As true as that is, it still means that you will soon be finding Cannondale and Iron Horse bikes in Toys R Us.
On the contrary, see how you can find Mongoose and Schwinn bikes in toy and department stores around the world? It's inevitable for their other brands.
Why would they crowd their own market with competing brands? Mongoose and schwinn have always made low end bikes, I just don't see a downward trend with those other brands.
