I've not ridden a 456 for ages, though the Blue Pig up front is quite similar to the Summer Season - 2 degs slacker than the standard 456.

Is there nowhere local with a Blue Pig demo bike? I tried one at 18 Bikes in Hope (made a day of it with family).

Alas, i am in the usa so no chance of test ride, Brant if I ride a 18inch 456 would an 18inch Pig be pretty much the same fit, i can change the stem eyc, I am using an 80mm at the mo, thanks

ive owned both and found the pig goes up and down far better than a 456 but a 456 is more at home on all day rides not involving much steep stuff. i defo prefer the pig
