(N-1)+1= Really happy!
So on the same day I sold my reign X1 and picked up this bad boy. First impressions are that its amazing. It pedals sooo well with the DHX 5. On that note though, the first thing to strike me is how high the gearing is. Even though its a Dh bike, I'd really like to have a granny gear just for pottering about in at the bottom of runs. Its also reasonably heavy. The Fox 40s are HUGE! and all in al it just soaks up everything. Can't wait to get it on the trails although that won't be for a while because Im away for two weeks army.
Enjoy.

Rides near me.
Do any of the DH boys know any good trails close by to UNSW? Or do I have to keep trekking up north?
P.S It would be good if the ride section could be sorted into different disciplines as well as different distances away.
Our ride around UNSW today.
A mate from college and I went for a ride around the uni today. Good fun. The first clips are my and the last two are the mate on an giant STP 0.

I'm not sure if the new full face and chest protection are going to keep me safe or give me stupid confidence!
