If anyone’s interested I picked up m Voodoo bokor today. Even better I realised that there was an extra 10% off bikes at Halfords today so paid the grand total of £544 after using British Cycling discount as well, bargain!
Gave it a quick fettle after getting the kids to bed and took it out for a short local spin. So far I’m really impressed. Much lighter than my old inbred, which is to be expeced but it’s so much more fun and much happier to change direction and generally behave like a hooligan. It even comes with decent Maxxis Ardent tyres. Only oddity is that the crankset which is SRAM NX appears to use an older style powerspline BB, but that’s not a biggie. Oh and the saddle will need swapping out for me. Overall well happy.
