Hi,
I have entered the Hope Pre-Peaks and am wondering what bike to do it on?
Has anyone done this event and what do they suggest?
CX or MTB?
Cheers,
Mick

If the route is the same as last time then you will be quicker on a CX. There is only one moderately bumpy descent (Arncliffe Cote), one rough climb which will probably be a short push/carry on either CX or MTB for most, and a lot of good tracks and road.

I did it on a lightweight Cube Hardtail last year and it was good. Lot of people on CX, lots on big full sus too!
Doing it again this year, but I'll be using my Spark. Light, fast and comfortable 🙂
