This is an outstanding little mountain goat of a bike.2000 miles of use so far. tyres did 1800 miles mixed road and green laning. Deep mud and dry dirt, this bike just trots over the lot. The wheel bearings are vulnerable to liquid mud and pressure washing. Top Tips: have the saddle re padded and raised an inch or so to make it half day comfortable. Fit substantial bar risers (ive lifted them 2.5 inches). change the rear sprocket to a custom 33T. Now you can cruise at 45mph between lanes, top speed well over 70 mph which is beyond the need of most as it will ruin those soft Michelin or Dunlop trials tyres. Buy a couple of additional 1.5 Lt fuel bottles to extend the range to a decent 80+ miles. A full tank of mixed riding will do 58 miles +/-.This is simply a great piece of kit. Light, easy to ride and simply flattering to the novice. 82kg of joy.
