After having seen the new transition on the front page it reminded me of the amount of 4x full sussers and slopestyle bikes and the more usual hardatils that have come out over the last few years but who has use for them? I can understand things like the blur 4x or blood but these teeny 80mm bikes must be a bit niche considering the abilities of many trail bikes nowadays. When I was one of a bmx/trials/dh teenager menagerie terrorising pensioners around town and hitting the jumps I could see the use but these bikes are thousands of pounds, we've al seen the kids with £4k DH bikes at glentress but surely they're not indicative?
I'd be interested to know of anyone that finds it appreciably better at the job considerin the monetary outlay.
