Never thought I'd ride a lefty....but here I am ;)

 

Took me a looong time to decide, but I couldn't find anything else decent in my budget with carbon wheels, light frame and in the 2019-2020 year models.

 

So this is a 2019 LTD, weighs about 10.5 kgs with the pedals, absolute rocket on the climbs and also carries/regains momentum very quickly on the downhills. For now I'm much faster uphill than with my old bike and about the same on downhills just because of that ability to accelerate after braking. I'm sure once I get used to the seatpost (or put my old dropper on) I'll be much faster downhill as well. 

 

Looking forward to riding this beast again !

It is a Lefty. Just the newest Lefty that was introduced for 2020. Its the 8th generation Lefty.

That I know all the way. I meant, "How different is it from the previous generation Lefty?" I call the new fork an Ocho and the previous version a Lefty.
