The change from the O5 to the Clocker was quite an experience. First time doing any proper offroad without rear sus in 24 years of biking.
Having to pick lines, move around on the bike on and off the saddle, use a bit more finesse and try to “float” a bit more made it actually a lot more fun than simply ploughing through everything and letting the suspension do the work…
Had to go a bit slower, mind, but I’d promised myself to do that anyway – had enough skeletal breakages thanks.
Bugger of a backache after, mind. Waiting on the Thudbuster from Chain Reaction, ordered this afternoon.
