    I was going to buy and xt shifter but there is no I spec ev bracket for hope brakes yet which is a bummer.

    What chain are you running with the gx shifter and xt mech. I’ve just done the same and cant quite get the shifting working quite right. When I adjust I either seem to be able to get the highest cog and not the lowest or the other way around. Wondering if my chain may be worn and not helping things.

    Its the rigid rather than foldable at £30 on r2 bike. Anywhere seen any mega deels on the Barzo / Mezcal foldable graphene 29 x 2.35 or 2.25

    What size Barzo / Mezcal combos are people running?

    Was thinking of going 2.35 Barzo front and 2.25 Mezcal rear?

    Do they measure up true to size?

    Ive go an SB100 and its the best bike ive ever owned. Just cant get over how ast it is. May look for another bike to sit alongside it thoigh for bigger days. The Ripmo looks ace. The new Ripley also looks extremely good.

    Like the terraduro but pretty weighty.

    That’s exactly what I have. Lasted me 10 years. Would like something I can put the power down on a bit more. Quite like the look of the giro technolace which are on offer at the moment.

    I bought the xc7. Really liked them and fitted well but I found the strap across the top of the foot was too high and dug into my ankle so sent them back.

    Cheers. The craft base layers look good. Are they the best ones to go for.

    That Xpress looks good. Is it ok with not marking the frame. Does it hold the bike nice and secure.

    Bummer. Quite fancy having decent mapping. Especially off-road. Sounds like none of them are great at this.

    How has the rotor been.  Any creaks of squeaks?  Are bearings easy to replace / find

    Really.  Thats rubbish.  Why so long.  That may be a blur out of the window then although the sniper is also a long wait time.  Anyone know wher i can demo a sniper?

    Just wondering if the 120 out back may just give me a bit more versatility to allow me to use it as my very day xc/ trail bike as well as race bike .Anyone compared the sniper blur together ?

    olibluegoat

    I’d be really keen to hear peoples thoughts on the sniper vs blur in trail versions.  The sniper gets very slack but i would look to reduce the HA by fitting an angle set.  66 degrees seems very slack.  68 would be perfect.  Does the trail version of the sniper get 120mm out back – looks like it when buying frame only.  How does the sniper frame compared to the blue in terms of sturdyness / flex

    Where did you demo the sniper?  Challenge is getting to places where i can demo them all

    Like the look of the Yeti but for 100mm of ravel its not very light

    Sounds ace.  very temped.  Looks like there are a host of 100-120 bikes coming out in the next month or so.  Need to try this alongside the new Orbea TR and Whyte s120
