Had a Kraken a few years ago before they switched to 650b wheels which i liked alot. The two.two caught my eye as all the reviews were so high.

However, with the current discount is the kraken the better bike?

Cheers

    Yeh I think the kraken is better, personally due to the fork and the price.

    The two two has slightly higher spec gears though.

    The two.two has gone downhill since launch, the Kraken is the better of the two and currently the best at its price point.
    Currently riding a Whyte T130C, X0 drivetrain, Magura Trail brakes converted to mixed wheel size (homebuilt wheels) with 140mm Fox 34 Rhythm and RP23 suspension. 12.2Kg.
  • I had a feeling, and thats just down to the XC28 forks on the two.two....
