I have a Scott Scale 35 (2009). Awesome bike, very fast and responsive. Dont ride it too much these days due to turning to the dark side (roadie). But on those occasions that I do take it out i just smile from ear to ear.:biggrin:

My pride and joy (sorry, no actual pic available).



Many parts replaced (saddle, peddles, rings, tyres), black anodising wore off the brake levers so on my one they have been polished up to an alloy mirror finish. I had many bikes, including two custom built racers from Roberts. Make no mistake; this is my favourite bike out of them all. I don’t know who was responsible for the frame geometry over at GT, but they really knew their business. Despite its weight the thing handles so well, on or off road it’s a dream and total joy to ride. The rear U-brake is phenomenal! And the picture really doesn’t do the paintwork justice, as every one was unique. I’ve had a couple of people just walk up to me, and ask to buy it, and on both occasions they were willing to pay more than the original retail value. However, I’m holding GT to their promise of guaranteeing the frame for life!

My mate has a GT something or other from 2009. The geometry is amazing. Even though it was half the cost of my bike I want it!!
 
Ok, here's my old school one:

Thats a frickin stunner right there.. Still got the Avocet saddle and Hite-Rite. Wow.
 
It used to be like this (riser bars, old Rockshox Judys, Promax V's and the spoke protector

Then it became this (flat bars, the not particularly nice Suntour XCT forks, Gusset discs on Crossride wheels)

Only to temporarily become this - not really a mountain bike anymore
