This came up on my Facebook feed. Part of my interest is probably because I quite like the bike, especially now the fussy braces are gone, but in any case, looks like a fun day out.

If I buy one, will I have as much fun, or just get multiple injuries?

\Frame definitely looks better. Be hard to pay a grand for it versus a Slackline at half the price though

Had to turn the video off. Depressing looking at those lovely dry forest trails while the deluge descends outside my window.

That looks like It was filmed local to me. If so the trails are no longer dry and the sun is no longer out.

Tasty looking bike and an ace video. Definitely the type of riding I'd love to be able to do if I wasn't so old, unfit and lacking in skills.

That's exactly the problem honourablegeorge. Although you get to choose any colour.

I didn't like the video, or the bike really. And as for the riding style. Is that really how you are supposed to ride a bike???

Yes, where have you been? It's outlined in the Tories' Enduro bill!

How would you propose it's done instead?

Not as bad as my .243 FR back in the day, 7lb on the frame alone. Very capable and great once it was rolling but jesus it took it out of you if you had to heft it about.

Looks nice but that's a hell of a price. Then again, it seems about right if you compare it with a Curtis.
