Headshot Posted April 24, 2019 Share I have. It seems a bit pointless to me to berm straight trail. I've noticed some berms forming on the stuff below southern cross. I like those. Assume it's the same trail gnome? I don't get involved in trail politics anymore. I don't ride illegal trails and I pay my trail fees. That's where my involvement ends.I think there's only one berm on a straight. Confused me too. Must have a chat to the guy next time I see him. The berms below SC were done by a paid gnome, not the guy I've seen on the Cork trees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duane_Bosch Posted April 24, 2019 Share This is why I don't get involved anymore. Here I am tarring 2 different people with the same brush and the person I have in mind probably isn't either of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bird guys are awesome and just down the road from my place in the UK. They've sorted me out a fair few demos. Post a review asap. I want one of their Zero 29 so much. 63 head angle on a hardtail!

Kuys Posted May 15, 2019 Share My enduro ride Disclaimer: I started this build in August 2018, so nothing to do with latest craze around mixed wheel size bikes Some less than standard bits: RS Coil rear shock29" Lyrik with 160mm travel, 42mm offset29" front wheel, 30mm internal width, Maxxis DHRII, 2.4 WT, EXO casing27,5" rear wheel, 35mm internal width, Maxxis DHRII 2.6 WT EXO+ casingHope crankset Reasons why I decided on it:geometry allowed to fit 29er front wheel (low BB, steep seat angle)geometry allowed fto fit 2.6"rear tyre (long wide chain stays)cable port on right side of frame for left rear brake routing (many new bikes only have port on right side) (its the details that matter...)34.9 seatpost, makes for stronger dropper postgood water bottle positionReasonably priced (more expensive than brand like YT etc, but better support)Good local supportLooks lekker :-)QuietIts a really awesome bike and one of the few ones I've ridden that just begs you to ride harder and harder in the rough & steep stuff Pity there's not more on the trails, a really underrated bike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
