town letter TR for point to race
0:06

0:08
suspension at the front it's got a
0:10
hundred and thirty millimeters of Fox
0:11
factory suspension at the rear
0:13
it comes with SRAM GX eagle10 250 set at
0:17
the back it's got Shimano XT brakes some
0:21
lovely ether teen wheels nice wide rims
0:23
on those and it comes with Maxis tires
0:27
I've switched out the tires I've been
0:29
testing some other tires I've got a
0:31
shorty wide trailer moment and an
0:33
aggressor at the back it's got a nice
0:36
short compact rear end 437 millimeter
0:40
chain today's the reach isn't super long
0:43
it's about 460 ml on this size large
0:46
head angle is sixty five point five
0:48
degrees seat angle is about 72 degrees
0:51
really nice playful bike climbs really
0:56
brilliant position for technical trails
0:59
and with the nice short rear end it pops
1:02
up manuals really easily it looks
1:04
amazing in more aluminum with gloss
1:06
black and orange decals really really
1:10
great bike it's got a nice five front
1:12
end which gives you lost confidence in
1:14
the steep technical stuff even though
1:16
it's only got a hundred and four times
1:17
the steep stuff really really really
1:20
think it'd be a bit outgunned but just
1:22
the handling and the position on it it
1:24
just it rides so so well because you've
1:27
got the rear brake tucked inside the
1:29
stays it does flare the back end out of
1:31
it and if you've got larger feet you are
1:33
likely to catch your heels on the seats
1:35
days which a bit of a shame and it's not
1:38
deal-breaker but it's a shame
