    Nice build! 8) There needs to be more bikes like this, simple, shortish travel and geometry so can properly rip the trail to pieces.

    Nice bike. These things are so much fun to ride. Mine seems to be airborne most of the time! I have never ridden a bike that likes to be off the ground as much as this.
    I think the Rev's are spot on for the frame. I'm not finding the flex a problem, it's there but not enough to cause problems. I think I would rather the light weight of revs than stiffness of pikes on this frame.
  • Ive only had one proper ride so far. Very impressed! i was surprised how easy it is to get airborne too. looking forward to testing it out properly at bike park wales in a couple of weeks

    Not my kind of ride - I'm more of a 'wheels on the ground' type (it's my age!). But it looks very tasty all the same

    Don't miss out on the blue trails at BPW. If you are a reasonably quick rider they are crazy fast and some of the rollers turn in to fairly big jumps. The Mega TR is all you could ever want on the blues and reds. It will handle the black trails without resorting to chicken lines but a downhill bike is more fun.

    Looks great, loving the yellow and white combo.
