    I’d be interested to know what the lateral stiffness is like on the spearfish. My mk 1 RIP 9 was a bit of a noodle at the back; excentuated by the big wheels I think. The new RIP is stiff as anything, but that’s because most of it is forged, and the weight goes up accordingly.

    Had another go on the AC29er today.

    Firstly what a difference a set up shock and no propedal makes, no seriously… Duh.

    Kept it to pretty simple stuff, nothing too technical (probably another mistake I made yesterday…) and went up Glen Tannar. Managed the first 25 minute estate track climb easier than usual, the rougher bits didn’t seem so rough (funnily enough as I normally ride hard tail) and all in all it was pretty damn good. Haven’t enjoyed myself so much up there since I took the Soul on it’s maiden voyage a few years back (and lordie I love THAT bike).

    Looks like I might have to start counting my pennies…
