Your suggestions, pur-lease! Anything slacker than 69 degrees, specifically. Can be 100mm frame etc...
Thinking of likes of Yeti ASR.
Discounted SC Superlight and Giant Trance.
Cheers!
(and pics would be good 🙂 )
EDIT: just seen the 5" slack angled thread, and technically 120mm counts as 5", but needs to take a 120mm 5" fork instead of a 140mm 5" fork, if you get my meaning...
bump for anyone who's not out playing in the snow.
Yeti ASR-5 seems like the natural choice.
Blur XC starts off at 69.5deg with a 100mm fork, but SC say you can run it with a 120mm fork (like mine). How much does that slacken off the head angle?
Stoodents.
Asr5. Want to borrow it again?
yo tbc - how is teh frozen north?
Blur XC Carbon - £2,299
Yeti ASR5 - £1,570
Orange ST4 - £1,480
Oof 🙁
St4 would be my choice.
Onion- 10 inch of snow in the back garden here. Amazing. Keeps falling too.
10 inches in the back garden?! Matron!
I haven't found a worthy rival to the ASR5 ('on paper') and have had another week thinking I should sell it. But nah, riding it is too much fun to take a compromise on something longer travel just to get the geometry.
Maybe the Spesh Stumpjumper - seem to be taking a slackjer approach to things.
what about Blur 4X?
what about Blur 4X?
Only suitable for short arses for trail riding, anyone over 5ft10 or so is going to be uncomfortable/out of controll on longer or faster rides.
