[Closed] show me your Prince Alberts

Hi mike-at-dialledbikes

Some one told me to get in touch, I ride an XC bike at the mo but rode BMX for years and want something that I play on more I want to jump and take down my local down hill course at kinver so does this bike jump well?

Bit of a subjective question really, nwill, as I find that most bikes will only jump as well as the person piloting them. The dialled bikes 4X team rode small/15.5" Prince Alberts before the Holeshot came out, if that's any help.

If you just want a bike for jumping and generally playing on, maybe a Holeshot would be more suitable than a Prince Albert (or one of the 15.5" x 21" TT Alpines that are on special offer).

However, if you want an all round xc/trail bike that's capable of jumping and doing drops, the Prince Albert fits that bill for many people.

Whats the current offer on the 15.5" alpine?

nwill, best drop me an e-mail if you want anymore info as I don't wanna be seen as abusing the forum.

I have a medium PA built up with good strong kit, Pikes, Hope Hoops with DT5.1 rims, minions, wide bars, 50mm stem, loooooong Thomson seatpost, 2 rings and a bash.

It's bloody ace and has been caned in BC, the Alps, Garda, Slovenia, Wales etc etc.

140mm Pikes are about the same length AC as 130mm Marz Z1 FR SL I previously used, so works great.
