Hey guys,

So I've had my Rocky Mountain UK Project hard tail for 4 years now, I had been thinking about going full suspension for about a year... when I stumbled upon my new pride and joy! ... I got it ex-demo and at a good price so could not turn it down.

Here are some pics:

Lorry turned up and I knew it was here!

Did they send me the wrong bike?

It appears not!

Washed and ready to go in to hiding for a week!

Took me a couple of rides to get used to it, but love it!
- It has the Fox Evolution Series forks some people say are rubbish? But I cant see why... maybe I'm not pro enough!

    I don't know why but the front looks really odd, front suggests something slacker then the forks come out more steeply.

    Otherwise lovely.

    It's just their design, if you go on the KTM site, most of their bikes are the same :)
