mountain bike race

Very nice deli - welcome!

nice deli.
that isn't a stock height is it? has it been lifted?

no inside shots? ;)

That is right, it has a 3 inch lift.

i never thought id say it, but Delis look so sexy in white. (i'm a black kinda guy... lol)

your dash is pretty cool too. not really my style, but cool nonetheless!
and your stereo. wow. what is it. it almost looks like a GPS built in or something?
and where did you get your roof light bar. very nice.

The stereo is just a DVD/CD/RADIO system, i have a seperate GPS.
The roofbar i got 2nd hand off a local 4wd shop

Nice dude. HK is so rad for modifying cars, same parts we get here at a fraction the price. is that hiace pic in TST next to that weird brown consulate office (I heart visa renewals)? I was kinda wondering why you so nonchalantly mentioned "going to china" to get your wood trim done...now it makes sense, aside from the annoyance of the Shenzhen shuffle.

Looks great, and I love the sticker regarding the sale of one's bicycle. Classic.

NICE.

really like the lit up rear delica letters. too bad they weren't wired into your brakes for a 3rd brake light!

You appear to be the master-LED-Light converter...

I like how you upgraded your position/marker lights in the front bumper... veeeeery bright...

Want to do that too now....

Very cool Van! Well done!

Cheers, Chris

WOW, an early generation Specialized DH!

oh yeah, nice van.

HAHA, seems like you know your HK stuff!!
But the misconception is that we are lucky to have such modded cars when the reality is that we could get caught at any roadblock the police have; and fined, compared to other countries where modding is allowed when you apply for it with the government.
Yes, the Shenzhen shuffle.... now you try to drag a bag full of car trim through during rush hour without it being damaged, thats skill!! haha

They just stay on when the lights are turned on but did you notice my 'Pajero' style rear brake lights?
They are red on the top and bottom and the indicator is the middle light, the reverse lights are the spotlights on the bumper.
While on the subject of reversing, there have been a few fatal cases in HK where big vans and trucks have reversed in to elderly people in crowded areas.
To make my Deli safer due to the limited visibility and blind spots i have these reverse spotlights on the rear bumper, a loud 'Pink Panther' reverse horn, a sonar reverse sensor that talks to me and also a rear camera with monitor on the rear view mirror.
(It might sound like i'm boasting here or a little over the top but i have to confess that i backed in to a little honda at a carpark once and had to pay the driver for a new bonnet, i didn't hardly see it as it was so low and small! So all this is neccessary because it could have been a person).

Yes they are bright but don't dazzle people.
They are very cheap over here and are a straight swap on the Deli.
I don't know what the rules by admin on here are and don't want to step on anyones toes but if you guys want i could get some for anybody who wants some? As they would be easy enough to send

Are you a Downhiller too Isaac?
I have had this bike for like 5 years now but it's still working like a dream.
My idol was Shaun Palmer and i love the Specialized FSR design.
I was on the HK national team a few years back and traveled to Canada (Rocky Mountain House) and C.O.P (Canada Olympic Park) to train for the summer and race at Sunpeaks, Silverstar, Quebec (Mt St Anne) world cup and many others.
I've said it before and i'll say it again, Canada is or is one of the most beautiful places i have been to in this world, it's unbelievable and undescribable

yeah, but more of a weekend warrior.
the year I started racing it ended fast. i had seperated my shoulder on day of training run.
that would be 2003. now all i do is shuttle, bbq, and drink beer. and a bit of XC.

maybe Sam Hill's change over to Spec. and the Demo 8 will make you want to try the updated 26x26.

oh, and the Palmer was my hero as well because he did the 2 sports I love, DH and Snowboard.
which by the way he's back but riding for Intense.

Ever make your way back to the North Shore send me a PM.

Sorry for the derrail Delicats.
