Niner SIR. Got this frame waiting in the box for two months but it eventually happened. Kept the ride rigid for the moment and went extra mile with 1x10 drive for the first time on the mtb :)

I just changed from R1 brakes to Guides. When I was buying R1s second hand 2 years ago, I barely managed to grab them after 3rd attempt. I fanily found a dude in my neighborhoor and I came to pick them up at sellers place 15 minutes before another guy was meant to show up. Now, nobody wants to buy them from me, even for 60€

I love formula (changed 3 years ago from Elixir which were a soap in comparison) and was more than happy to buy these R1 new from CRC. Fox XC riding they are great imo. My enduro mates says T1 would be their choice, but I couldn't swallow the extra 50grams

R1s are already too much of on/off for me, but still rideable. After I started playing a bit with wheelies and nose wheelies I started looking at brake modulation from a different angle. T1s - Jesus fkng Christ... I rode T1s with 203mm rotors on Endooro bike of a friend in wet on a trail that wasn't even particularly rooty and rocky, with little mud and I thought I will die, seriously there is no way to ride those things in wet, I fell twice due to front wheel locking up and please keep in mind I jumped on his bike straight from my Blur with R1s. Put on good organic pads, braided hoses on that thing and you are off to the place where all the pain comes from
