Well took it for a test felt well blanced , front end grips very good .. Unfortunately ... There's a fault on the front forks ffs ... 95/100 psi was working great sag set up right .. But the forks ended up with about 50 mm travel .. 9 miles in to the ride.  check presure was still the same ... Will be on the phone tomorrow morning ... |

Well tredz offered to collect the bike or tomorrow , but I said I'll take the front forks off , and get them sent to them so they have sorted collection for them ... They were most apologetic about it as well .. Just one of them things glad it happened on a test ride .. |

Gaz - you're too nice - could have got an upgrade out of this! Don't worry I'll wait for them To fk up the 2nd time .. Lol  got to sy t the bike felt brilliantly blanced , and very grippy compard to the five which always feels like the front end wants to wash away so was a bit miffed that my test ride was cut short ... Still not sure if I should of gone for the large frame , trouble is im that size where short legs long top half lol ... |

Glad you love it Gaz, it sure is a looker, absolutely love the lime green paint job. Looks really well specced where it's important too and after following you down Tackeroo, I'm guessing I'll always be Tail End Charlie from now on, up AND down. Sure the Tredz folk will sort it double quick, I've always found them great to deal with - will this be your Penmachno-Snowdon ride? As for the other stuff, keep all your chins up, old lad.  |

Well at last got to take the spesh out for a shake down ride , little xc loop .. Legs were feeling a tad tired after the weekends riding Any way got yo say wot a light fast bike felt very good and well balanced it turns on a six pence compared to the five but they are to different bikes .. Got to watch out for the low BB and peddle strike .. www.strava.com/activities/294348373 |

Very nice looking bike that mate. Might be tempted to test ride the Camber and Enduro back to back, just to see what the fuss is about with full suss
