Foes 4X 2:1. Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii-i-ice.We got the nice guys at Balfa to supply a pre-bedded in Curnutt air shock.Even the dials are oversized.At first we were a bit miffed we weren't getting a red one, but this raw metal finish looks ace.Extensive "car park testing" began immediately.New head torches from Petzl - the Tikka Plus and the Tikkina.Yet another box of Mavic clothing has arrived. Here's Matt modeling the SL Arm Warmers.The rather pervy Echappe Base Layer.Mavic Peloton SL Base Layer.The Goretex Paclite'd Mavic Spray Jacket.Mavic also do some ladies clothing. Here's the Altium Women Helio Jersey.
The raw finish is easy to maintain though. Once a year go over it with a Red Scotchbrite pad & it’ll look like new again. Cant do that with heavy old paint now can you?
What is going on with Matt’s arm????
That Foes is extra ace
Thank goodness that Foes has zero standover clearance – it looks ace. You can’t do a fair 4X bike test without a Tazer VP FRO though ;>)
Foes looks ace!
Is that a mesh panel for optional ventilation on that pac-a-mac?
Oh and has Matt got really short arms? Both the arm warmers and jacket look a bit long for him
Things that aren’t necassary: people pointing to thing that we can already see in photographs. The Foes looks mean though.
That Foes looks mint. Put some decent forks on though ;o)
the arm warmer is doin the ‘funky emu’ strutting dance ! lol
Is it only me that thinks the Foes looks decidedly MOR?
That mavic base layer looks like a frilly Blouse! Whats going on with the jacket?
the singletrack understanding of the words “acerist” and mine must differ as that foes looks very 2001 and ordinary to me, not inspired at all
i think it looks sh##e
i can appreciate the engineering – but for aesthetics , how much welding ???
how many tubes ????
and i reckon the finish will look naff after a good northern winnter
The Foes looks like the designer only had a set square.

nice kit, not sure on the 4x bike though, and are matt’s arms looking a bit tubby?
“That mavic base layer looks like a frilly Blouse!”
Like something Rose West would wear back in her Lodger-killing days?
Rocketdog. You are wrong ;] HTH.
