That I understand but I see some others are running tubeless on the kids bikes

Surely you could run much lower pressure for kids that size? On my xc bikes I run 0.8-1.2 bar, if I’m planning to ride more on tar then I’ll run 1.5 bar

They are all nice bikes. I really wanted a spez enduro but then I ended up on this path. The warranty from trek and the weight benefit of being full carbon are definitely the main attractions. The uniqueness of pyga and the fact that’s it’s local is awesome. I haven’t properly back to back tested them yet but they both were nice so far

Not sure what you’re asking, are you familiar with claiming VAT back on items though a company or are you just asking bike related?

Yep

Agreed but the issue is if you break it, you may break yourself at the same time.

Just finished building this up, second hand frame, cranks and the remainder of the XT groupset I had lying around. Brand new fox factory 38, XT brakes on deore 4 pot calipers, MD 35 wheels. The one up 210mm dropper and the bars came with the frame. I do have an XT cassette but unfortunately was unable to get a microcline freehub for these hubs. I do have some new tyres I will slap on shortly.

Finally got the pyga all together, my dad claims he’s not happy with the slash so it seems I may take it over and sell the slackline.

Trek wolvespruit have a large carbon XT slash still

Would that be the alloy or the carbon one that is breaking? I’m going to test back to back a bit, there is one more large carbon XT version identical to what we bought this morning. So if I feel the trek rides far superior then I’ll maybe go get that

I highly recommend taking a look at treks sale. Most xc bikes are sold out but a lot of longer travel bikes are still there for half price, some less and some more. There is no way you can get such well specced bikes for these prices.

Decided to keep the pyga, if my dad doesn’t like his new slash then I’ll maybe take that over.

That’s another question I can’t answer

Morning all, so I’ve just built up a pyga slackline, it’s well specced with brand new fox factory 38, 4 pot XT brakes and wheels on a second hand frame. I haven’t even gotten to ride it yet as the wheels only arrive today. I was a trek last night and they are having some insane deals. I can get an alloy slash (previous gen) for 40k with gx groupset, code brakes and ZEB select fork. Claiming VAT back and it’s 35k which is mind boggling. I’m going this morning to purchase one for my dad, but the question is, should I get myself one too? If I do I will probably go for the carbon one as that’s all they have left in stock in my size. I love the pyga but the warranty is very attractive on the treks and I would be paying less for a brand new bike than I can sell my pyga for. I may want to keep my fox 38 for the trek if I go that option though as I in anycase have warranty on that. Trail/enduro people of the hub, what’s your recommendations?
