    It rides fantastic mate, feels responsive and very fast, i'm really happy with mine, not a lot more i could do with it now really.

    Changing the tyre size, was running 1.95 but just bought some maxxis ignitor 2.35, better for trails.

    The tyres are a lot better, running them at 35psi, it makes for a more comfortable ride, especially coming back down whinlatter.

    I'm thinking of changing the frame on this bike to a Ragley Piglet next month when it comes out, if anyones interested in the giant frame please get in touch with offers.

    I have now fitted a Nukeproof Warhead seatpost, an On-one cnc machined 70mm stem and some Race Face atlas bars.
