RockCoach Posted October 4, 2013 Posted October 4, 2013 Front what? Aren't all SSers carbon and rigid on the front? Surely people aren't sullying the essence of simple with stuffs? Ummm... Just a hint of helpful advice. Use it. Don't use it. I remember Thuggie's first time at the farm on his rigid. He went home and bought the Titus with 160mm travel. My SS (Ragley) I'm just about to start building for the event will have 140mms of buttery smooth travel on the front.

RockCoach Posted October 4, 2013 Posted October 4, 2013 Here's another one Peach put together (I think) Mr Mil. You coming to Farmasutra? I'd like to see a rigid ride the black route - from 2:24 in the above vid.

Now I'm going to have to nick the front bouncer off my race bike...
Kritzie Posted October 4, 2013 Posted October 4, 2013 Cool. D, bring the more trail orientated SS with front suspension. MMMMmmm is it a SS if it has suspension me think not lol!!!
RockCoach Posted October 4, 2013 Posted October 4, 2013 Damnit. Now I'm going to have to nick the front bouncer off my race bike... It is obvoiusly possible to ride it all rigid. Just not sure how much fun it will be.
Super_mil Posted October 4, 2013 Posted October 4, 2013 Mr Mil. You coming to Farmasutra? I'd like to see a rigid ride the black route - from 2:24 in the above vid. It this stage it's not on the cards for me unfortunately. The 1st time I was at the farm I binned it hard on the black route (the little double stepped rock section). Was seeing stars, shattered my helmet etc... Although I did win best crash award and a set of tyres but was lucky to have walked away from that one. I'm sure it's bound to be another festive Swampdogs weekend.
RockCoach Posted October 4, 2013 Posted October 4, 2013 MMMMmmm is it a SS if it has suspension me think not lol!!! Why? I reckon more than half the bikes at SSWC had a front suspension fork.

There is a rumour of an Enduro at the farm early next year.
Thug Posted October 4, 2013 Author Posted October 4, 2013 I'm going to be taking 2 bikes with, the Surly and the Titus.
