ahh sorry fellas i forgot about this thread....
anyway i only really got to give the pitch a good ride on saturday up at cannock chase as ive been busy at work.
initial impressions are very good, its a lot lighter than my old enduro and due to this it climbs a lot better too.
I think the fox rear shock helps with this too, you can feel a marked performance difference between propedal on/off and come climbing i didnt feel the need to switch it on much !!
for some reason it feels a lot more planted on the downs too?? i mean really stable and egging you on to go faster.
ride position is comfy too although i think it could do with a slightly longer fork to match the back end, or it could be down to the fact i like a higher front end than most?? the pike is still a very capable fork though.
anyway is it the bike for me........ well im not sure yet, compared to my mates 08 and 09 enduros the frame and bottom bracket are a lot lower, i clipped my pedals a couple of times up cannock due to this.
im going to put it up for sale soon i think as im away for 5 months with work and it will just sit in the shed gathering dust.
so if i can sell it i might be able to get an 09 enduro for the same sort of cash when i get back in november!!
cheers all
steve
