• Schwinn Straight 8

    Ooof right up my strasse

    Uch I’m not sure I’d ever really commit the money to an fsr dh. Was my dream bike when I was 14.

    I used to see a guy on an fsr dh in Glasgow around 2000-02, often seen him in the Kelvingrove boosting off the steep verges off the main path. He was always in casual clothing and no helmet.

  • Haha! So it’s the one with the same rear suspension lay out as the dh9?!
    Funny, it’s all coming back to me now, Schwinn and Yeti were made in the same factory or owned by the same people back then?

    I feel like that era really was the golden era of downhill, like the dawn of proper long travel downhill bikes. Feels like yesterday.
