Had this email today from Freewheel:
So if you buy an Aerial or Myst you can get a free DJ bike!
Oh balls there was me thinking the free bike would be one that I would want to use ie something like an ebike
Ur 2 biks iz Saracin
Saracen - first brand I think of when looking for a jump bike! I'm not surprised they'd have a few left over.
Pre freewheel Saracen used to make lots of good well priced jump bikes
xcell excess xtort maybe more my memory is poor.
cheap and fun but not really relevant as that was a very different company and brand to now
@speeder why do you say that? They've made decent jump bikes for years. Not specifically jump bike heavy range like dmr but still as good as most other mainstream manufacturers?
If I had room and more free time I’d love the Myst. Pretty good value already as far as DH bikes go. And if it is good enough for Matt Walker…
Pretty sure the Ariel 60 got a glowing review on here as well. And the Jump bikes actually look ok. I'm slightly tempted!
If anyone is tempted I have a CR3 for pump track duties and it’s a seriously good bike. The CR2 is pretty much the same with a downgraded fork.
I have an old CR2 for the pump track, nowt wrong with it other than needing a much stiffer fork.

The Ariel 60 also got a Singletrack Editors' Choice award.
