my first bike was a marin rift zone, back in around 1999/2000. it was my xc bike which quickly showed me that i needed something rigid, so i traded it in for 2 bikes - one of which was for my dad and the one I had was some steel 14" no name frame but with semi ok bits on it. after breaking that for a while I bought my ES4, which is still going strong 4/5 years later because it had a couple of years off B)

edit: forgot the cost, the rift zone was £1300ish and my ES4 new cost me around £1400ish and would now be worth about £50. battered.

my first bike was a saracen Xile about 5/6 years ago lol

it had a mini seat, some crappy fixed bash cranks, some identity forks that weigh around 1.2 tonnes and some pappy spindle open bearing wheels lol

My first trials cycle was a Sunn Team issue frame.... 50 quid from the importer who did me a deal for some web space coverage. I built it up with mavic 121's and hope hubs and discs about 7 years ago or so... got the same wheels and discs on my giant that i have just got :D
