Rock Rider FR1

Johnnyvee

Anyone seen the spec on this bike and have any thoughts on how good the NEUF suspension system is?

Decathlon in Sheffield are knocking them out at £850 which is pretty good - if the bike's any good.

Just cannot find a review of it in English.

if its good enough for yetti to copy it, its good enough for £850!

*Edit, i thought it was the Neuf variable pivot point suspension

Still bloody good value for a freeride bike

for that price its a bargain and a half,if i was buying i'd get one,i have the rr 9.1 and love it,rides everywhere my mates 2k stumpy does for a 3rd of the price
the components on the FR1 looks amazing for 850.no way you will get a bike of that spec for any less than 1500 anywhere....

Is well specced, but a bit weighty - if you don't mind the weight, is a decent AM type bike.

This is a similar type of bike, same weight - worth considering too:

Has a better version of the Sektor (ie motion control), and in my opinion, a superior SLX drivertrain.

i'm a little confused by this thread,and the responses, exactly which bike are we talking about, the ER1 or FR10, not seen anything for a FR1 on the Decathlon or Btwin sites :?

It will be the ER1 if NEUF.

and a hell of a lot cheaper, tho to be fair, for the extra £150, id give serious thought to sonics suggestion of the voodoo, or even a boardman fs for that matter

70 quid off the Voodoo too ;-)
