Seen lots in the bike press in regards to Ragleys launch at Eurobike with their new FS range, but I can't for love nor money find out how much the bikes are looking to cost and when should we see them in the shops? Really want to give them a shot...the G6 looks likley to be the next steed.

i'm very keen to see/try a big 10-4, the ragley facebook page hints at early next year.

but we've heard that before...

I'm very interested in these too, looking for a trail centre bike that could cope with the annual morzine trip

Thought that was Nukeproof. Oh, wait a minute...

[doesn't matter anyway, I bought a new headset rather than trying to get the NP one working - Nukeproof Warhead HD headset - the worst bike component I've ever bought]

it's true, their headsets are total bobbins.

I think ed-o is on a Big 10-4 in the "Classic Rides: The Long Mynd" photos in this months mag. The pricing on those bike is very, very competitive.

I've been riding a G6 for the last few weeks. Tidy bike. Mini-review to follow shortly...

+1 but putting two piles of shite (customer service reference) makes one big pile of shite

I don't think he is.
I must not have my morning coffee before writing that because it’s nothing like a Big High Ten apart from the color.

So what is he riding?

I'm amazed by how much the Ragleys are like the original 2005 Giant Trance and Reign - no bad thing in my book - but with sorted angles.

The 'Glory Hole' does mean that there's no way of getting a piggy-back shock working though, unless the G6 has enough room down there - always a problem with my Reign.

Hmm, similar in some ways, but a fair bit different when you look.
1/ Floating shock on the Ragley FS (Giant Maestro's shock is fixed at one end)
2/ Hole in [u]seattube[/u] on Ragley FS (Giant Maestro's hole is in downtube)

As you say, angles 100% sorted. Such capable bikes up and down, the Ragley FSers.

I love my Blue pig and i always thought that when these came out, i would get one as they are nearly the same geometry as the Blue pig. But with the Issues surrounding Ragley and no-one seemingly able to get a response from anyone regarding the Ragley brand, i'm not sure.

Just realised I asked Brant for Ragley prices, forgetting he's not there anymore (although they are Shedfire designed). Apologies!

😳

Jambon - I noticed on the Ragley FB page someone asked if the 29er would take a piggyback shock and the answer was that it should do, so I'd hazard a guess that the 26ers will as well?

Looks a lot like a SC tall boy to me.

Just read on Ragley's FB page that the full sussers won't be available til later next year now as they are 'continuing R&D'.

Oh well, looks like they're off my next purchase options for early next year now, shame.

Well just as I added the cotic to the next bike list and thought said list was getting a bit long, looks like I can cross off the ragley

Anyone heard if the full sussers from Ragley will be at Eurobike 2012? I'm still really interested in the 10-4....
