I've just found this trail on another thread. Having watched a 20 minute video by the half way up mtb club i'm struggling to see why it is graded black.

Are there large jumps, rock drops etc that aren't in the video?

Can it be done on a hardtail or is it full sus specific?
I don't know enough to make smart r's remarks about peoples choice of parts 'n' things, yet!

    thanks for that as soon as i get a chance i'll nip over and have a look at this one.

    is it a busy place or is it nice and quiet like brechfa and gorlech?

    I've only been once and it was mid week and I didn't see another person!!

    I think even on the weekend it's such a big loop and doesn't feel like a trail centre that it probably won't seem busy even if it is.
