New Bike Advice
I’m starting to think about my next bike am a bit out of touch with what’s out there so am trying to shortcut my research by asking NoBMoBers for some tips.
I do cross country marathons and my only 2 criteria are it must be dual suspension and it must be able to fit 2 drink bottles. The latter being the hurdle. I also have a preference for 1x11 or 1x12 and sub 11kg.
So far I’m aware of only 3 bikes that fit the bill - Specialized Epic, Cannondale Scalpel & Canyon Lux.
Are there any others I should be looking at?
Cheers

Wildflower Garden update for 24 Jul
Nursery section has had some love and is in real good nick. Horse Trail section is getting a little blown out in places. Muppets loop is fine. Not strictly part of this track, but the Larool Fire Trail has had some work. Water bars have been sharpened up, the slasher has been through and the muddy cobblestone section has had a lot of crushed sandstone added on top, so it is just reverting to muddy in a few places.

Chiltern Track update for 24 Jul
Dry and a bit loose. Needs a better bike to horse ratio to lessen the impact of the rocks dislodged onto the traffic line by the horses.
