I have heard a couple of stories regarding frame cracks etc they are releasing a 650b version of the strive very soon with a very clever rear shock if the rumours are true

We got a bit lost and missed about 4 sections of the trail. Can't wait to get back out there to do it again!

How the fuck did you manage to get lost. Could understand if you went off piste. I bet you missed seagull, and that little loop.

It was quite easy. Went through tank traps fine and hung a right up to the crossroads. Took the path which showed the red 3 & 4 markers and followed that. We didn't spot any other markers and shortly after we got to another crossroads. We ended up going through a really fun twist section with trees tight on either side all the way.

Once we came to the end of that section we saw a red 9 marker. No idea where 5-8 were?

Thats a full loop of blue and red. i reckon you missed the turning just past the upper star post(cross roads) at end of red 4.

more miles than the offical trails and most of it off piste. Some of the better trails there are not offical. Get out and explore, you will be surprised.

Thanks for the links, we'll be out there again next week exploring.

I've owned a Ibis Mojo HD and I'd not buy another Ibis again, ever.

I look at it this way, if you like your bike that you ride at the moment, the feel of the suspension etc then I'd wait for 2015 160mm Slash's to arrive. Cannot see it been long as 2015 stuff is starting to launch now.

This strava isn't really accurate at all - said i did 37.4 mph on my mtb other week, now peddling hard as i could on my racer on a step down hill only says 30mph?

No way that i was faster on mtb - just no way

had a lovely wednesday evening ride, got quite a few pb's for a change then did a bit called grizedale pike, which was immense fun coming back down it. very fast and very steep. 18 mile ride and climbed 3652ft. not bad for an after work bit of fun.

Why not buy components yourself? Could get a really decent bike for the money of the bikes you've mentioned,I certainly won't buy a full build again!

Have you looked at transition covert (26" or 650b) /orange alpine (rumoured 650b for 2015)
