Jonkers - which bike?

[Nil]

I did Jonkers with my 26 when it was wet. ( only fell 7 times )

I had a lot of fun going up and down.

Live on the edge.......go 26.

[Hairy]

I suppose I do the climb to get fit and the downhill for the fun of it. Trouble is the tolerance of the pain going up only lasts 20 mins or so and then I've had enough. I couldn't beleive last week how I struggled with the old Trance.

HTFU .... and ride your bike

[sawystertrance]

Jajajajaja. Good advice. Dammit.

[droo]

Haha, take a spin on a properly set up one like mine and you may just enjoy it

 

Hehe... I'm just providing a bit of balance to all those "upgrade to a 29er" posts. It's a tough job, but someone's gotta do it.

I know that but it was just a matter of which of the two that I own do I use? Wasn't a question of what to buy or which is better.

trance + firehuts = awesome

[sawystertrance]

So thanks to all who recommended the Trance for Jonkers Saddy. It was def the bike to ride. Had a blast although we got lost and ended up riding Canaries instead of Fire Hut. Heartbreak Hill! Good name. Will be back.

sell the anthem and upgrade the trance

sell the anthem and upgrade the trance

Whaaaaat? Heresy. Actually, do want to upgrade the Trance - dropper, tyres, service the suspension - but having 2 gives me options for different rides.

If you set the trance up properly, you don't need the Anthem. Seriously.
