Of course they're saying that to consumers. But I remember a time when they denied the possibility of a 650b bike with 130mm of travel. Then a few months later the Solo was released. So they can't just release product information before it's officially announced. We all know how rumors travel on the internet.
completely different linkage and headtube design. not to mention a much longer shock and shock stroke and completely different geometry... but it's a slope bike so i gues that makes it the same
Not bad I rode Glentress and Inners today. EWS stuff from the tower at Glentress then along for a lap of the red XC and Inners. Such a good day out on the hills in the sun Think my top speed was around 40mph
