Other info: Bike was completed in October. The plan was to throw all the bits from my old Fury onto the frame but it ended up being a total build. My fury still lives, I was out on it today. Pic above was the Ragleys first day out, the steerer has been trimmed down since then. 250mm FSA seatpost also binned (way too short) replaced with a Ragley. These forums were a great source of info and parts for the build, thanks all!

My old Fury, well Fury frame with various parts from a Kraken and GT Agressor Elite. Bit of a Frankenbike. Out for a ride today until the mech hanger snapped in two for no apparent reason.

    Sovereign has a lot to live up to. The Ragley was a great bike, pushed me outside my comfort zone in a good way. Once you figure it out the handling is razor sharp and reliable. Climbs OK. Scarily fast on a singletrack descent. Brilliant on slow rolling rooty, rocky steep stuff. A genuinely likeable fecker of a bike. We had some great times.

    It also vibrated my internal organs, teeth and brains to a thin sludge.

    5/5 Goats (apart from the sludge thing)
