Haha cheers dude! There is always room for improvement and think it will take me many more tries to get a fully clean run in to not case any jumps and keep the speed up :)
Looks like some of those jumps need a lot of energy just to clear them?? Like they are not in the right spot perhaps. Still keen to check it out though
I think with a few more runs of the track I'll learn where to pump and maintain speed. 2 jumps before rock drop though are sort of up hill and hard to clear. But after that just have to pump to maintain speed, which I wasnt really doing. Still a sweet track
Looks like a trail i have to checkout, I havent been to kersbrook since breaking my collar bone(3months) it would be good to join you on a ride at kersbrook oneday. Let me know.
Oh damn not a collar bone. You do your collar bone at Kersbrook? As you may know Kersbrook is pretty deadly, there was a rescue on Saturday because of a possible broken shoulder :/ But can be safe if you know the trails well. Im usually at Kersbrook most weekends but lately only once a fortnight. Might see you around!
@@KurtisPape yes it was at Kersbrook where it happed but surprisingly not where you might think. It happened when the bike washed out from under me going around a flattish bend, luckily a large rock stopped me instantly.
Cheers! Ive been meaning to do a long term review on the bike but haven't gotten around to it yet. The bike had been sweet! No problems with the unique rear end or the frame in general. Haven't serviced anything yet but suspension is probably overdue. I have pulled linkage apart couple times to clean which stopped creaks but at the start there were some problems, like dropper post was a bin job, bit of a rear wheel warranty on rear hub, rusty headset bearings and just the usual stuff I expect from getting a new bike but once I got passed a few problems its been perfect and frame is strong AF! Still love the feel of the bike and geometry is still up to date. 1 strange thing is I battle to do wheelies on this bike, I guess balance point is far back and I just cant master it. Other bikes im fine with, but it does not effect trail performance
dude that was some dope riding you went through that track so clean yeeeeeew
