Lacking in motivation and bored of the weather. Show me some mid travel, pedal up and tear down bikes to cheer me up. Ta.

Now with a Reverb, RQ Black Chilli front and rear (2.4/2.2), a freebie Charge Spoon that just seems to have ended up on there, some Easton Havoc bars and minus the dork disc.

Thought it was facing retirement but it's just got a new lease of life so we're off to the scottish enduro series, where we will no doubt finish about 170th, again.
Now with dropper post. In need of new rear mech and a nice calm day with no rain

Poor pic but my favorite bike of the last few years
Light enough to rag up hill on group rides with my friends
And more bike than I need down hill

Some great bikes IMHO. I'm particularly loving the Spesh content.
Like sssimon my Camber is still running 'those' 26" wheels.
I haven't posted a pic as 1) it has a mere 120mm so not sure that counts as mid travel, although I use it for the traily* stuff I ride. and 2) I haven't got a decent pic since changing bars, stem, pedals (and seat collar and grips to be precise).
Keep posting chaps.
*is that a word 😉
Seems from one of your threads like you were at BPW last weekend too!
Those pics were taken friday, but we also rode on sunday morning. We 'foolishly' rode Afan in the blizzard/storm that was saturday.
Lardman.
BTW.....
Nick Frost - Lardman..... not dissimilar.
I can ride faster tho'
Probably not as much travel as the majority of bikes in this thread but a wonderfully capable bike. Now sadly for sale in an effort to reduce me fleet as it's the one that's ridden the least 🙁
