    Second Hand Bike Recommendation

    Just go full boomer scooter and get a Surron. It’ll be cheaper than an eeb and u dont have to tell everyone (and urself) that it’s a one off cheat day.

A 2wd kluger can be had for 20k, but it’ll have 100km and be at least 12 years old. Also is it for ur mum or the wife? Go your...

    there’s no jumps I’d turn my nose up at. Only flow trails :cool: took the little dude out for his first race. Absolute carnage on the first lap. It was great to watch. Over all though not interested in racing, just wanted to hit the jumps

    I’m liking the extra length, no issues. Don’t think I’ll run another sram udh. I’ll get an alloy nsb or burgtec one. They’re twice the price but I’ve already fucked 2 sram branded ones riding. Needed to put a new brake hose in as well as it’s moved the caliper aboit 80-90mm further away.

If you’re going to shell...
