New bike owners: here's a handy template for starting full-suss-vs-hardtail threads. Just cut and paste!

=======================================================================

I just went out on my new [FULL SUSS][HARDTAIL]*. Wow! I can't believe how [PLUSH][DIRECT] it feels compared to my old [HARDTAIL][FULL SUSS]. All the roots and drops and rock gardens that used to be so [CHALLENGING][EASY] to clear felt really [EASY][CHALLENGING] instead. It was so much more [FUN][FUN]!

It was loads faster going [DOWNHILL][UPHILL] and I don't think I was any slower on the [UPHILLS][DOWNHILLS]. I must be way more hardcore than anyone who still rides a [HARDTAIL][FULL SUSS] bike!

=======================================================================

*Delete as appropriate.

I'm rebuilding my Heckler next week, this will be very useful. Thanks.

Thats a 5 star user review btw, I'm not calling you a *****.

Excellent stuff!

Can you do me a template for
singlespeed/gears
29/26
road/mountain
As I'm not sure what I should ride and need someone who doesn't know me to tell me what to do. 😆

elliptic, this is brilliant and will hopefully save some confusion in the future! DezB good effort too!

This template delivers! I approve.

DezB, A for effort, C for achievement. 😆

Very good. Please lets cut and paste this every time we get a thread like that one posted by the muppet this morning.

Good grief man, pull yourself together.

Just pick an opinion at random and then defend it to the death, like everyone else round here 😉

Good effort but any fule no that all bike reviews should include the phrases 'laterally stiff' and 'vertically compliant'
