The Switchback has been in development for the last 2 years and has been designed for those of us who like to ride trail centres with friends and get wild on the the Black Runs, then go race Gravity Enduro's and Mini DH on the weekends. When it came to shooting the video for this hooligan of a frame we thought who better to take it for a play than our resident 4X racer, Luke 'Limbo' Limbrick. We met up with Luke at the Forest of Dean, we knew he'd arrived because of the unmistakable burble from his supped-up stealth black 400brake Mitsubishi Evo. After a few obligatory mistimed high fives, Luke suggested we go "smash the granny out of it". I took this to mean thrash the trail and the bike and shoot a great vid, so with Joe from Capta media, me and Luke went up through the forest and this was the result!
Please enjoy the vid and if you're interested in the frame here is a

My Stanton Switchback certainly got people admiring and talking in Whistler with the best comment coming from the guys at Evolution Bikes, "So that's the British Chromag then"
If you are looking to replace or just get yourself a hardtail this winter that will put a grin on your face straight through until summer, this is the bike for you.
Just be careful, you may not want to get the big bike out again...
P.S. You make some of my favourite bikes Dan, just please find someone other than Capta Media to produce your promo videos! For example, Cut Media + Limbo + Switchback Ti = pure epicness.
