Question 1 of 2
Pretty much decided to invest in a Carbon Nomad as an all mountain / xc bike. Will be used out here in OZ as a trail bike – more xc than anything and as my main bike when I come back to visit the UK. It might see some use in Queenstown in NZ when I head over again so I can ride a bit of everything. In the uk it will be Local xc / trails centers and a bit of DH – Ribbesford / Cannock / FOD etc so nothing too crazy. I have a V10 for the proper DH stuff uplifts / alps / racing etc which I can always bring back if need be.
So Fox 160mm Talas 34’s or 36’s? on the front? Had a set of 36RC2’s before and I did like them – they were set up ok – but I don’t really think I need that much adjustment really.
Will the 34’s with 15mm axle handle the DH ok?
What is the CTD like to live with – do you find you stick it in trail and leave it there pretty much?
Can you get a remote for the 34’s – which would actually make the CTD Useful?
Cheers.
