right then, im tearing what little hair i have left out, im considering buying a new bike.
i’d done my homework, found the bike i liked the look of, the bike that would hopefully fit my riding style, even went to try one on for size.
i was convinced that the remedy 8 would be the bike for me, basically im looking for a bike for all uses (steering well clear of cliches such as ‘all mountain’ or do-it-all)…(oops) something i could ride the hell out of, a bike to do uplifts one day and ride up the next
the Remedy yes?
but then today i saw the Fuel Ex8, again i tried it on for size, i picked it up to test the weight, then i saw the price tag! cheaper by nearly a grand!
so, my query is this, would the extra inch of travel at both ends, and the extra build justify the extra 800 notes?
or more importantly would the Fuel be too ‘fragile’ a bike for me to treat mean one day and for it to return the favour the next?
theres not much in it by looking at them but i’m hoping the great people of STW could help me out with some )god help me)….opinions
thanks in advance
