Morning all,
Had an issue with my trail bike (5" travel, big grippy tyres etc) this weekend.
So ended up riding my lightweight xc bike (100mm forks, carbon everything, no dropper etc) on a ride that for me was pretty hairy on it.
Thoroughly enjoyed it, I rode the descents a bit slower, felt arm pump for the first time in years since the alps and generally scared myself silly whilst having a right laugh. I kept with a mate on the climbs too that I can't normally touch.
So it's got me thinking... Possibly ditch the two and get one hardtail somewhere in between....
Who's done similar?
What did you go for?
Any regrets/happy with the decision?
