Glad to know it climbs well.

Weeeeellll actually wen't over the bars on super steep hahaha, seriously i did, i don't think i had the new fork dialled in for the steep stuff,not enough compression, I felt it dive rolling off a big root and i guess i touched the front brake just at the wrong time, still, absolutely no complaints whatsoever, my legs used to cramp up with the effort i put in when climbing on the Dune but i felt very fresh yesterday, not so dead legs at the end of the ride, bike felt really quick, maybe a touch more air in the shock and maybe try out more compression on the fork and i'll have it sorted ...1x11 is the dogs danglies John
