Nice. Hows does that Santa Cruz compare to the lappy?

Honestly ? Going to get slated for this . With a 120 fork on the Lappy there really isn't much to separate . Tb climbs a bit better coz of weight ( but does have better wheels on) and only 1/2 kg diffrence . But on the downs can't beat the Lapierre and the confidence it gives you. And position on the bike is probably slightly more comfortable with its relaxed geo.

 

But the tb is one helluva of brilliant bike for all day jaunts when pushing hard or racing .

Cheers guys. I'm fine, believe it or not. Not a scratch. Derailleur went into the rear wheel on a steep downhill, left the track into the field and hit a lurker. Took the chain off as the hanger broke. Front wheel had a moerse buckle. Tried to freewheel but the next rock my wheel hit. It collapsed.

...he wont admit it,..but he regrets selling the bmc to me!!! hehe :)

Just kidding, that SC looks awesome! Love the bmc Pikey, I dont even have to be fit,...and it still rocks!!!

never ridden a bike as quick as the Bmc ,it truly is super fast. But the geo was to harsh for me. Am stoked it when to a good home.

Such a good looking ride as well.
