Yet the BDS and Pearce series both sold out in a matter of hours…
Look at the welsh DH/Trail centres – when I was back in Aug/sept I struggled to get on uplifts, Antur, Revs, bike park all booked up a month in advance and prob 70% DH bikes / 30% Enduro/Trail/All Mountain* bikes.
I guess the reduction in DH bikes you see is the sheer capability of the 160mm travel AM bike these days, I left my V10 in the UK when I cam back to oz this time as other than some of the real big gaps there is nothing I can’t ride on a Nomad. I’ll keep the V10 for going to steeper more rocky / ‘gnarly tracks that need a bit more travel to hit at a reasonable pace.
