I’m usually a little suspisious of stuff that’s been on the market for a while but hasn’t got a UK distributor/warranty agent.

I wouldn’t worry too much about that.
29ers have been THE thing all over the world for at least the last 5 years but the UK has only just caught on.

Ah but the guys from Loco Racing (formerly Loco BM Racing) have been running on 29ers for several years 😉

Just to balance it up a bit for you. Ive had a Reverb for 11 months. Trouble free.

My mates Gravity Dropper got stuck down when he was showing me how fool proof it was.

I bet suspension forks and hydraulic brakes were viewed the same way when they first came out.
