I needed a bike for the Dudes of Hazzard, and as my latest fat bike is still in the works, I thought I could at least use the front end on my 29er, which went from this

Yeah, I know it looks shite! I thought I'd give you a laugh.
Sweet baby Jesus and the orphans.! 😯
The do it all bike that just keeps giving.
looks fun, and that is what it is all about.......you weirdo.... 😆
Nice reflectors.
is that a triple?
aaa hahahahahahahaha ha!
It's a duc 32 which is a trail fork. They're a mediocre attempt at a really good idea - integrated steerers are much much stiffer than the ones you and I have on single crowns.
A light, dual crown 160mm USD fork with carbon uppers, ti nitride stanchions, Ohlins RXF derived internals and the technology from DVO or X-fusion (better yet, both) to deal with the USD forks inherently poor torsional rigidity...... would be THE ideal enduro fork.....it's a fork I'd actually be willing to spend 900+ quid on. Fox 34's aren't.
I'd pay more if someone sold such a shock in combination with a semi active rear shock.
I was about to post some middle age angst thread about shooting the TV and along comes your mood breaker.
Cheers.. what the kids say "lol"
I'm almost ready to come to dudes of hazard just to see you ride that thing!
So wrong it's right 🙂
Needs more cutlery Al.
Al's bikes are the ying to Druidh's perfection yang.

Don't know whether I'd trust that stem 😯
perfection = gay
Tom, I'm 99.9999% sure brakes is referring to the chain set, but well done for trying.
How did it go then? Saw some vids of stage 3 and guessing a Larry was a tad sketchy in the bog? 🙂
I fancy a go next year but it wil be with a Bud both ends 8)
