I like the looks of that Chumba with the Lefty.

But obviously the best one is the Helix 29er.

This is how they twist the tubing for the Helix.

That is just wrong and has devalued the BigS bike substantially :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry:

what are the benefits of the lefty?

 

Once you have ridden a Lefty you will never want to go back - lighter, stiffer and because it uses bearings as sliders gives an unreal smooth action.

Its like supporting the Sharks, once you have tried it you can`t go back to any other team. :D

Man those Twisted Sister frames are hot! There was a guy at the 24 hour with one, without a Lefty of course. It is a work of art.

Have to agree 100%, requires more maintenance though

 

Virtually zero flex, especially fore-after flex

 

Very light

 

Very responsive

 

Very expensive (to buy and to maintain)

I reckon that most people are copying me. They've seen a pic of my bike on MTBR and as they say in the classics............the rest is history.
