    onedpete – did you run the DHR 2 on the fonr backwards or in the same direcation you would run it on the rear?

    Whats amazing about the DHR 2 is thats its also quite abit lighter in 29er format than DHF

    Didnt realise they had updated the geometry on the Ti. Come on Dan role it out to the steel frame as well. My wife will kill me if a titanium frame arrives by stealth courier in the shed

    I’d absolutely love a switchback. They look amazing. Just worried that at just a smidge over 6ft it looks quite short. Its got almost the same reach as my old medium Yeti ASR5 and that was too small for me really. Had to run a 90mm stem and layback post

    Anyone else riding an 18″ switchback at 6ft. Id ideally like to run a 50mm stem

    Stanton switchback? – just think thye look amazing

    I’m in the same boat and looking at the same options

    Be interesetd to see what people go for

    Thought the bird had a bit of a dead feeling in terms of ride from the reviews – be interested to hear peoples actual experiences

    How harsh is the bird?

    Would love a whyte but they dont do a frame only

    Do you think the new nobby nic in trailstar is grippier than a hans dampf or a DHF?

    Does the Nic have a greater volume than a DHF?

    Does anyone know if the DHR2 rolls faster than a HR2?

    Deviant. If you had one Spring-Summer set up which would it be out of the ones you have listed

    I was thinking of going DHF front and DHR2. Just been so impressed with the breaking on the DHR 2 on the rear

    Have you run a DHR 2 on the rear in the summer. How draggy is it?

    Interesting. Id agree. The Magic Mary has been grippy as anything

    How does a Magic Mary run in the dry?

    How does the new nobby nic compare to a hans dampf?

    Or just keep the DHR 2

    Running a magic mary on the front at the moment which is amazing and a DHR 2 on the rear of my Evil Following

    Just thought i may need something that rolls better for the summer?

    Perhaps DHF front and DHR 2 rear

    Never tried a High Roller

    Currently running a DHR2 29 on the rear. Changed from a purgatory. With a Magic Mary up front its been bloody brilliant. Amazing traction and breaking

    Do you also need to add grease to the bearings or does the mineral oil do the job

    Cheers IvorHogseye

    Just thought it was time to give it a go

    Sometimes feeling like i cant unclip just that second quick enough

    Was hoping riding unclipped might give me a bit more confidence to go even faster

    Going over the bars clipped isnt fun

    Going to go with a Magic Mary up front

    Do i go Magic Mary or DHR2 exo 60a for the rear?

    Perhaps ill try the Nobby Nic. Do you finD the grip of the front end overwhelms the grip of the rear with the NN. I’d prefer the raer end not overtaking the front :)

    Ive got a butcher on the font at the moment and its alight in the wet but not great. Brilliant summer tyre.

    Perhaps i should just switch the butcher to the rear?

    Anyone know where you can get the DHR2 exo 60a cheap?

    Found 29er magic marys for £22 at the momement so i thought at that price they would be worth a go

    I was thinking Hans Dampf in the rear. Wondering if it will give a lot less grip compared to the Mary in the front.

    Largely for riding around the Coed y Brenin area
