The bike has been mint handling technical tracks with ease and has brought me on as a rider loads. The only reasons I’m selling are due to wanting to have a go enduro racing for 2015 and after a recent growth spurt to 6’2 has meant I now feel more comfortable on a larger frame (anyone from 5’7 to 6’0 would be perfect).

In February it had a full fork service, new rear brake pads and a new front Maxxis high roller DH tyre. Throughout its use it had numerous new gear cables, a new chain at 2 months and a few brake bleeds. The frame, fork and cranks were also fully vinyl wrapped from new by Richard Scott Designs.
