wesley_r Posted November 7, 2011 Posted November 7, 2011 Hank is officially an all-mountain rig. Performed admirably on the Conties DH track this weekend someone once referred to the meta 5.5 as a DH bike on a diet - they weren't far off

Granted the head tube wouldn't last long doing that permanently, and it felt a bit unbalanced plushness-wise, but the handling was still really good!

I dialled the sektor out to 150mm and almost immediately put it back to 140mm, that's how weird it felt
LazyTrailRider Posted November 7, 2011 Posted November 7, 2011 It comes down to what you're used to I guess.... Usual fare on that bike is a 150mm Sektor, feels pretty good to me. A lot slower than my bike, but in a good way.

Flowta Posted November 8, 2011 Posted November 8, 2011 My GT. Nice to see another Sanction. what length is the fork on there?
