Pinkbike closes doors and opens Moto website...ChainSlayer.com

March 31, 2008

Published by radek


It has been a great bunch of years running pinkbike.com and riding around on pedal bikes. Great memories and friends, but we must progress as riders to another level. The next level is Moto, DirtBikes, and ChainSlayer. Bigger jumps, faster bikes, and let's cut to the chase, hotter podium girls.
On that note we are now closing pinkbike.com and starting a new website called ChainSlayer.com

I can write a big story why we are closing pinkbike and switching to moto but I think the following pictures will speak for themselves. I hope you all join us on a journey into the future of "riding".


Ok, so you can ride your pedal bike and jump big, getting towed in by a moto. Not bad.


Or you can get a motor and be a real man and hit real jumps.

You can go on a ride to, shuttle up for a ride, ride for 20 minutes, then wait, then shuttle again, then ride again, yada yada yada. Or you can show up with your Moto, start your engine and ride all day, enjoying yourself, getting better faster, and not being a lame pedal biker.
Best of all, unlike on a DH bike no one will ever say to you "dude, where's the motor on that thing?". Um yeah, right here byatch.

It's easy to switch over to moto. Look at me. I ride in my mtb helmet, mtb jersey, mtb gloves, mtb pads, mtb mace vest.


All your MTB gear crosses over.

Need some more reasons to sell the mountain bike and get a dirtbike?


Moto Riders Podium = hot chicks


MTB Riders Podium. I rest my case

It is clear why earlier today we cleaned out the Pinkbike HQ out of all mountain bikes and got things ready and made room for real bikes.


Dump that zero and get with the hero

Email Jordan if you want any of this stuff before the bums get to it

ChainSlayer will be just like Pinkbike but for Moto.
So in conclusion, pinkbike.com will be dead in a couple of days and the new website you should all visit is

http://www.chainslayer.com
