Nice bike, dodgy colour scheme.

Mint choc anyone?

The marginally cheaper Pitch Comp looks far more comely:

On the plus side, only a £100 price rise. Oh and Pikes out, Sektors in.
Anyone used Sektors yet, how do they compare?

The one thing I would say the pro does not remind of is mint-choc.

I dunno, I have always liked the Pitch for what it offers.....albeit not as cheaply as it once did, but then is true of all manufacturers.

Good bikes ruined by gopping colours schemes IMO.

The Pro one looks pretty good in terms of spec.

The non-moco damper in the fork and RS Ario rear shock on the comp are poor though. Really not worth the saving of £200 once you factor in buying a moco damper unit and a replacement rear shock to sort the handling out.

The US colour scheme for the Pitch Comp is the pick of all of them, plain black with red details;

Same score as previous models though. My Comp came with the X Fusion clanken shock and motion control-less Pikes.

Cracking bikes though.

White Sektors on the Pro would improve the looks drastically..... Its like a poor attempt at the Specialized/Monster demo frame.
