yes mate, I've still got the nomad. I wanted something I could do more easy rides on (canal path etc) with my boy. 170mm travel was a bit excessive

poah

can still run 170 with the hornet lol

Yeah I wouldn't like to try it though I think!

Feels perfect with 140mm travel (for me anyway)

That does look nice. I was torn between the petrol and the red

I've only ridden mind 3 times. I can't wait to test it on a proper trail

Both look really nice, I was tempted with one of these as a winter frame. Decided to just get the transition repainted instead.
