this better be worth it. If I was you I'd take a minute, mow the lawn, take another picture and try again

Yer Tiz 😆

Bugger beaten to it by fast finger GeeWavetree 😥

how can you not click on the IMG button and paste?? do you need help with pelican crossings?

Too slow 😆

Don't know why, but the IMG function just won't work for me.

Bike now minus reflectors etc.

Only managed one ride and now the bloody g/f has infected me with her tonsilitis so i can't ride 🙁

I never bother with it. Just put the link here [ /img] without spaces. HTH

very orange

'tis a bit – my other 3 bikes are black so thought it was time for a change! 😆

very orange indeed…. nice ! what are they like to ride…are they on the heavier side

nice bike, these ride really well for their weight… make full use of the U-turn – the bike was designed around the versatility of the fork

Only had one ride so far Elaine, but it certainly does ride 'lighter' than i was expecting. I own an '04 Mount Vision as well & that climbs pretty well & the Wolf Ridge isn't that far behind to be honest. I suspect on a long all-dayer i would be slower but not too much i reckon.
Not weighed it yet but supposed to be around the 15Kg mark.

The QUAD 2 suspension works really well, great traction & the fork is ace at the big stuff. With the U-turn & Motion Control it also works well on the climbs. Stands taller than the MV tho, my cods are hard against the top tube but that's to be expected when you're 5'2" with a 27" inside leg!

Muddy, you should have bought a carbon roadie!

Great choice. You're going to have a right laugh on that.

Crikey – you're determined i'll give you that! 😆

Really chuffed with the Wolf Ridge so far, especially with £1000 off the price. Hope i can do it justice now – midlife crisis bike i think!

muddydwarf- i think i may know oyu from years ago!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😯

Lovely! 8)

muddydwarf lol ! i have the same 'short arse' agin scenerio… only bike in the north west to fit me was an orange five frame size 14 inch (short)…. god dint hand out long legs for us two then ! lol….
enjoy your new bike…..have the reflectors gone now then..lol

Sonik – where from????

That's true Elaine – unfortunately i have a long torso (comparitively) so the 14" Kona my 5' female friend has feels like it's been squashed lengthwise, the stem feels like it's under my clavicle!

The new bike fits perfectly everywhere apart from standover height. It's something i'm used to, not going to find a 140mm travel bike any lower than that really. Even the Lapierre i tried was tight against the old chestnuts!

Now i just have to ride like Mamadirt!

muddydwarf- rickards

Now i just have to ride like Mamadirt!

Don't wish that upon yourself. No chance of me even getting close to doing my Slopestyle justice especially with a burgered shoulder but hey a bit of skill compensation is always good 😉 . Looking forward to seeing some more pics of the Wolf Ridge once it's filthy – looks a cracking little ride . . . and Im a sucker for orange 😛

MD – Like yer new toy mate !
Indeed, Very Orange 🙂 – Will be able to spot you from the other side of a valley unlike your previous Black Knight look.

Pity about the tonsilitis – That'll soon go so no great problems. – Besides, it's hammering down here at the mo, so much nicer stopping in.

Bestist wishes…& watch them cods ! Hurts like hell when you get the old Cod & Toptube interface wrong 🙂

Chris

Eureka that is my first succesful attempt.

Ey-up Chris!

Strange thing is, my medieval armour jacket is exactly the same shade of orange, maybe i should combine the two for full effect? 😆

Sonik – Bloomin' eck, where you been hiding?

Drop us a line if you fancy a spin out sometime.

Nice bike Hoy – teach me how to do a bloody pic post will ya? 😳

muddydwarf-kind'a guessed it was you-squirrels sister told me you were MTBing. last time i saw you you were still on a clogg vibe! alot of 'water' has washed under the bridge with me since then. 😕
hows tricks?

Me too fella, me too. 😕 Been a bad couple of yrs but things are getting better now.
I'm doing the C2C with Sarah's husband in July, she thinks we're mad!

Clogs are in the back of the cupboard these days though, kinda replaced with SPD shoes..

You in 'dale then?
