    Hi Rusty, is that the s/m or m/l Froggy?

    What do you think of it compared to a proper DH bike?

    I'm thinking of geting one, but not sure I'll be able to demo it so want to hear from as many owners as possible. But unfortunately not many people have them.

    And also, is that Swinley car park?

    Hi Chakaping

    Before this I had a V10 and a VP-Free and I don't plan to go back. As you can imagine there are some hits that the V10 could take better but these would be huge and due to rider error. The froggy feels just as stable on most DH tracks. Having this bike has made me a lot smoother and on most tracks faster as I can through it around.

    It is the S/M and is about 34.5Lb with the Deemax wheels.

    Hope that helps and yes it is Swinley.

    Everyone must be getting bored of this photo, I've posted it so many times! I'll take a new photo of it sometime complete with scratches, dirt and proper pedals!

    Hi Chakaping.

    I am about 5ft8" Inner leg 29"/30". And the s/m is perfect for me.

    Rusty.

    if i could find a picture of mine I would post it up but my azonic sabre with 66's looks just like ken's old one (but it isn't actually his old one, its dave h's iirc) -atomlab wheels, much lower saddle, chain device, saint brakes and big wiiiiiide diabolus bars. It weighs a ton but it's a real talent compensator!

    although now has 09 coil totems with 1.5" steerer, many fewer spacers and a thompson 4x stem to go with the thicker steerer. I really like it. 7" is enough for 90% of the stuff I take it on and it handled the first fort william enduro well enough.

    Mountain Cycle Shockwave 9.5, just waiting for the new WC links to drop it to 8".


    The original Shockwave from 2000, 8" with a triple front ring! Traded the frame against the new Battery…

    Float 36's on now and a double/bash, short stem etc.

    that orange battery looks fun. is the wheelbase short? whats it intended for slopestyle or general razing.

    ohh! that trek is purdy, they've managed to get themselves a horrible rep for snapping though.

    It's the rear triangle that has been snapping and Trek have done a voluntary recall on them. Surprise surprise, the replacement parts are about a lbs heavier – some things shouldn't be that light.
