Took the hardtail for a loop around GR yesterday. Its a full on carbon frame with 26" wheels, Fox fork, carbon bars and full xtr…with Schwalbe Nobby Nick in the front and Racing Ralph in the back
Bike is insanely light
Thing is flickable like nobodies business…accelerates like a cheetah
But
what a ruff ride…this thing beat the shit out of me… and the damn tires suck! they pushed and slid in every corner…BOOOOOOO
took this bike because i was doing a recovery ride to loosen up after pulling a muscle in my knee thursday. I had to cut the ride short because …i was not feeling it with this bike.
took out the spider today… what a difference!
