Orange Switch 6er. Stif Squatcher. Schwalbe Magic Mary Purple Addix front. Maxxis DHR II 3C MaxxTerra rear. Coil fan. Ebikes are not evil.
I have been a writer for nigh on 20 years, a photographer for 25 years and a mountain biker for 30 years. I have written countless magazine and website features and route guides for the UK mountain bike press, most notably for the esteemed and highly regarded Singletrackworld.
Although I am a Lancastrian, I freely admit that West Yorkshire is my favourite place to ride. Rarely a week goes by without me riding and exploring the South Pennines.

Blur by name and blurry shot on purpose…..? I’ve watched the Mojo interview…;-)
thats nice
Thats a nice looking steed.
Looks good, I would love to hear what this frame is like and how it compares with the Blur 4X of old…
Why weigh it without pedals, personally I always ride my bike with pedals!
because his pedals weigh three kilos each and would make it look like a bloater?
MrK mkIl you are correct ; ]
That front brake hose looks a little on the long side. Cut that down to the correct length and you could probably shave another kilo off!
It looks a bit like a 29er in that pic
It might be something to do with the angle the pic has been taken at
Gorgeous bike; enjoy!
