 No, that was Jack Reading, but I ride on the same team as him. I don't see why not, cause they're an amazing bike!

 ahhh awesome, i thought jack had a blue one? i guess he has more than one Razz

I guess there aren't a whole lot of dealers, i've not ridden one, but they do look sweet!

 We've got red ones this year Big Grin Haven Distribution and Freeborn Distribute them, have a look about cause there's usually awesome deals on there anyway. They do ride amazingly so get your leg over one if you get the chance.

 ah awesome. I wouldn't mind trying one, but there's no way i'll be able to afford one any time soon, as I've only just bought a used patriot FR frame, and i could barely afford that! Guess I'll just have to practice hard and get sponsored Wink

 Money is always an issue in this sport :/ They're definitely worth what you pay for it though

 How does this Dare compare to the lappierre pendbox also in your pics? Also ya with Ellsworth the only reason one might not buy one is the price, my moment left quite the dent in my wallet.

 They both ride very differently. The Lappy works if you ride it really aggressively and get over the front, however the dare works best when you lean back off it and let the bike work.
The Lapierre definitely suits my riding style more, but many riders love the dare because of how good it is at absorbing bumps and how relaxed you can be while riding it- I've never found a bike that can take rocks as well as the Ellsworth.

Watch the rocks at 1:15 on this video and you'll see that I get no feedback from the bike and it does all the work Razz It's my mate following me www.pinkbike.com/video/213621

And thanks!
