LazyTrailRider Posted February 23, 2011 Posted February 23, 2011 I must say that riding the Commencal has gotten me used to bob Trust me, the Epic will feel like a hardtail to you, compared to the sofa-like 5.5!
Noneking Posted February 23, 2011 Posted February 23, 2011 Hijack - Cannas, did you ride Clarens? No, missed it. Will be doing Sabie this weekend
Vega Posted February 23, 2011 Posted February 23, 2011 No, missed it. Will be doing Sabie this weekend Thought I saw that bike in Clarens - mine looks exactly the same except different saddle. Might see you on the trail in Sabie.
AndrewF Posted February 24, 2011 Author Posted February 24, 2011 I heard it was crazy muddy. Not the normal kind either. That clay type that NEVER comes off Happy I missed it

Top Fuel Posted February 24, 2011 Posted February 24, 2011 I second going the 29er route. I had a 2010 Specialized Epic Comp Carbon and now I ride a Bulls 29er. I have never been happier. I did the Attakwas on my new bike so I have tested it somewhat. I am also doing the Ca2c this weekend so more testing.
AndrewF Posted February 24, 2011 Author Posted February 24, 2011 I've hear 29ers aren't as agile as 26ers... Considering the size of the wheel, maneuvering through obstacles must be a tad awkward on a 29er?
