thanks for spreading the good word. these may not be the sexiest slopestyle bikes ever, but they are real world whips for real world shredders. does the konig get twtchy at speed? ----well shit. i guess every bike with incredibly short chainstays and just a c*nt hair over 5inches of travel and a nice steep headtube angle will do that. but heres the trick. i know how to ride my bike, and i got some of them majick tonic handlebars. two really good things to have in your back pocket when you start riding a little FR bike in some big DH shit. so the awnser then is ..... -----NO! its really stable at high speeds and handle tight shit at slow speed better than an xc bike. one bike to do it all yo!
This is what i was using for my all mountain rides out in the peaks, then i sold my DH bike about a month ago and have been using this every week until i get a new DH bike and its been coping amazingly, sweet on the jumps, perfect in the corners and really sweet and agile bike too! I love it! I've even used it on DJ's and a BMX track and it handles great!
My do it all at the moment... after a hard hit i have a squeeking noise coming from what sounds like the rear hub and the cranks are clunking, so she's resting up, sucks that i dont know whats wrong because my mechanic knowledge is below what it should be!
the clunking in your cranks are your bearings and the squeeling from your back is probllay the same, or if your really lucky its wobly wit ha screwed rotor (not likely)
