Was after a fun hardtail and the Dartmoor Hornet 2016 was on sale at slam69 so I picked one up in the awesome petrol painted finish!
I've stayed 26" for now as I couldn't afford new fork and wheels. Wasn't sure about 170mm on a HT but it's actually ok, doesn't feel odd or wandery at all but I've only ridden local easy trails so far. Will give it a proper go at Woburn soon to see how it goes.

Schraeder?
Old skool.
🙂
Looks a riot...
I think it's gonna be really fun 🙂 based on my ride today the geometry feels sorted for longer forks, in the past I didn't like anything above 120mm on a HT but this feels great. Nice to be back on a hardtail with modern geometry.
Schraeder valves are old school now?? I've been out the game longer than I thought!
I likes 👍🏻
I thought you had tanwall tyres at first glance. 🙂
Very nice that. Be fun at Woburn..
Saw New Bike day and automatically read " Ton " 😀
Schraeder ftw
I have a Hornet, it is a great all rounder.
Size Large, 160mm Fox 34's on 26" wheels.
my back hurts just looking at it. Hope it is fun though!
