They work nicely, need regualr air sleeve services though as seals not as good as fox air shocks.

Just arrived and weirdly there's a Nelson Mandela quote that's been appropriated by a certain advertiser.

Just had a browse.

Many items predicted correctly by the STW massive. Round of applause.

I really like the look of that new Mega AM. But I could have the Orange Five on the next page with a near identical spec for only £1000 more.

Hmmmmm......

Since what was mentioned on here is what the site and the mags have been banging on about for ages and is largely seen as the industry standard it'd hardly suprising.

It's like predicting you'll see a horse at a horse race.

The fun is in secondguessing the predictable answers, rather than being some sort of seer of quality. Still, surprised no RP23.

Really surprised how few 29ers actually- they say 29ers make more sense than 650b and 26ers nost of the time then recommend only I think 4 29ers.

I wonder if either Jonesy's 29er honeymoon period is over or is it just that manufacturers have made an effort with the latest 650b bikes

Ah, just spotted another 2. Verdict seems to be more or less that there's more competition for 650b whereas there's a smaller number of clear winners for 29 (also, no doubt 650b is just newer and more interesting)

Also, the comment on the 322 that Orange shelved it because "it's been around for a while" is bewildering, no? It's only 2 years old, the 224/Evo was in production for about a century!

I thought that too. I guess they couldn't put "nobody was buying it"?

They're wrong either way as it's back on the Orange website as a frame only option so not shelved.
