MORNE Posted February 19, 2019 Posted February 19, 2019 Yes, I still am ! Love it, but it hurts me every now and then. it doesn't hurt you, it just reminds you that you are a man(child)ly man and not made of glass
Super Sywurm Posted February 19, 2019 Posted February 19, 2019 I am currently busy with a 26" dual susp build.

popcorn_skollie Posted February 19, 2019 Posted February 19, 2019 I am looking for a frame, but in no rush Get the Zircus. Short to medium travel DJ frame.Could be fun as an AM bike too with a longer fork.Sliding dropouts, threaded bb, tapered head.
Super Sywurm Posted February 19, 2019 Posted February 19, 2019 Me too. Well 2 builds actually. A giant stp and a commencal meta 5.5.Just been busy lazy to get them sortedI am building a Scott Genius (oldish frame). I already got a new Rockshox Reba and a front hub (20mm x 110mm thru axle), all the other parts I still need. The next item on my shopping list is the wheel set.

patham Posted April 1, 2019 Posted April 1, 2019 Got my 10yr old youngster a 26" Trance Junior as he is still too small for a 27.5 dual sus, even in XS frame. He is now faster than me on the downhills, luckily I can still climb better. He can also track stand like a master, and on a ride on the cycle path next to the river I watched him manage to cycle 4 km without holding the handlebars and turning by balance only- OK I think he grabbed them once to hop off a kerb. There's mixed feelings when your kid overtakes you in skills!
cat-i Posted April 2, 2019 Posted April 2, 2019 Yes! 26" is not dead Not dead, but getting more and more difficult to get tyres
Skubarra Posted April 2, 2019 Posted April 2, 2019 Rode on my old 26er once the last December holiday - it was horrible
Gr3mlin131 Posted April 2, 2019 Posted April 2, 2019 More by default than any choice I had in the matter. My very cheap 26er hardtail has gotten me through several races now. As I am not even close to the sharp edge of the field I am having a ton of fun on it. I might need an upgrade if I ever want to do serious trails, but for starting out this is an excellent way to get into mtb for a roadie.
