    Oh my! :shock:

    I didn't think it was possible for me to want a Mojo more than I already did. But I do.

    That is just EPIC! Well done.

    That frame is almost too beautiful to ride, I'd have put it in a glass case in the middle of my living room, sold the telly and just watched that. :lol:

    That is one stunning looking bike, but I'm going to laugh so hard if you come back after the first ride and say it's actually a pile of crap. :lol:

    I still can't understand why I want a singlespeed steel hardtail when I already have a full-susser with 27 gears.
  • one awsome build,I think if you ever have to sell it there would be a lot of buyers
    I assume this is French petrol - be careful in reverse - the car will retreat rapidly at the least provocation.

    Ok so I took her out for a ride last night, clocked up 16 miles around haldon forest.

    First impressions were a bit worrying as i was trying to get used to the slack head angle and had the front wheel wash out a few times. After 15 or so minutes I was feeling a lot better, haldon's new ridge trail has some tight singletrack so i figured this would be a good test for the bikes geometry, some nice jumps and techy downhill off the main trail too.

    My overall feelings are that the bike is a killing machine, something that you feel totally confident on, invincible, carrying so much speed that inevitably sooner or later your going to bite the dust and its going to hurt.

    The brakes are super powerful, the rear suspension is extremely efficient emitting only a slight amount of wallow compared to my regular mojo. The stiffness of this frame is something else, I had the back wheel drifting out on many occasions which was totally controlled and put a smile on my face, something which I havent been able to do on the mojo sl, maybe it was down to carrying more speed.

    The greatest asset is the Talas fork, what a fork!!! 100% of totally usable travel, super stiff, travel adjust in a snap which I used frequently and gave the bike the same feel as my mojo sl.

    The frame climbs so well, having a 160mm rig weighing 28lbs is such a versatile machine.

    Getting this bike has actually caused me a great problem, it xc's so well that the dilemma now is which bike do I take out riding later.

    I look forward to the magazines doing a review of this frame, ill be surprised if it is not extremely highly praised.
