    my mate recently got a 2010 model from CRC – a Coilair i think

    Its got 160mm forks and 120 / 200mm at the rear

    He reckons its a total beast and rides really well

    He’s untouchable DH now mind!!

    Singletrack magazine reviewed the original coilair one in 2008 (issue 44ish?) and the abra cadabra, maybe in 2010/11? Cant remember when. The reviews were pretty good, but theyve not kept them on on long termers or anything?
    I cant remmeber seeing much on this forum about them either
    They seem like a great idea but Im curious as to why they dont appear very popular
    Do they steepen up if you try pedalling downhill? Is there a lot of chain pull as you try pedalling as it hits stuff?

    I almost bought an abra cadabra frame off CRC in that sale, but I dithered too long and they sold out of sizes I was after

    They took ages to come to market, the magic link frames – some major teething troubles, think the launch and the marketing buzz were so far apart that they lost any momentum or interest.
