What does bikehub-land think of the All Mountain Hardtail?

[raptor-22]

A longtravel trail Hard tail is an awesome bike to own.

They're simple, relatively light, flickable, jumpable, pumpable, apples of fun.

And they're relatively cheap.

and Chicks dig'em

So what would be a realistic price for building one of these, even in 26 format. Thus, what's the cheapest way in getting one, even if it's a steel build

Jip, I'm a big fan. Currently gathering bits and bobs for my Cotic Soul 27.5, 140mm build. Hopefully it will be sorted by the end of January.

Yeah, unless you're looking for a bike to only jump with. Like my hard tail is a small. Built it as a dirt jumper.

And the problem with that is...?

 

Great photos and it looks like a killer event.

 

I'm all for the principle of #Enduro®©, but some of the **** these okes are wearing looks stupid. For instance:

 

 

What's up with those goggles? Why are they so big? What is their purpose? Is it just a scene thing that I don't understand?

I can tell.

 

What I'm wondering is how many LBS' are there were Joe Soap can walk in and buy himself an AM hardtail. There are many bikes available, but in SA it's either boutique/niche manufacturers such as Dave Mercer or imports such as Cotics and On-One. There aren't too many bike shops that stock this type of bike.

Jeepers, dude. 

 

You need to get your troll detector calibrated. It's off.

A good couple of sales staff on the floor also stare back at you with a blank look on their face when you talk to them RE AM HT ..... chuck in the words "steel" and "26'er" and they are completely lost.
