Bikes for Enduro... The restart

[Skott5]

They last ages though......

 

Foam grips or nothing .... my old bones need the cushion ..

[Grease_Monkey]

No man, it's like driving a BT50, you don't see the ugly when riding it.

But I'll know it's there. And every time I look down I will start to throw up violently and develop every disease under the sun.

From back in my dirt jumping days when half my bike was made up of BMX parts I would shop at bmxdirect. I got a couple of pairs of BMX grips because they were so cheap. The ones I got are not for sale anymore but are similar to these..

I know they are not lock-on, but I don't have issues with grips turning, unless I've had a crash and sand gets in between the bar and grip.

That hybrid setup Maes is running is A lot more subtle than I thought it would be

Production Privee Shan n5 from Odin Woods

 You don't see one of these frames on a daily basis. Just a small number of companies offer full suspension steel frames, and this one comes from Andorra.

Hope HB 160 from Nigel Madigan

 A pretty unique build for this colorful HB 160. At the moment, this frame color pattern is not offered by Hope.

Chromag Stylus from Phil Town

 Steel is real, and that's even a more powerful fact if we talk about an all mountain/enduro hardtail.

I think a 90deg side on shot would have showed it better. The perspective is balancing it out in the photo. Never knew he was running it. Did he run it last year?

Nope, last year your wheels had to match but I think that's been lifted this year

So I hit Helderberg On Sunday morning. Man I forgot how fast that middle bit is. So much fun. I rode it once last year in May, so hitting jumps and drops is like hitting them blind, which adds to the rush for sure. The climb to the top.. Pretty much killed me in that wind though. Better get fit If I want to do any real Enduro's this year.

I have serious lust for a Bronson.

I have serious lust for a Bronson.

Was always that one bike i wanted  to  buy. Then last year before i bought the guerilla gravity. I contacted a few shops for a 5010 instead. No one had stock, or gonna order. Go figure. So i decide to contact the agents, explaining what i want and understand they dont sell to the public, but can they please direct me to a store that has stock. I received a reply, yes there is large. I reply at which shop about 2 or 3 times. Then ordered a guerilla gravity.
