nothing wrong with a hardtail, them things take propper balls.
and i felt intoxicated and silly because i was intoxicated and thought it was a full susser.

Got a vid of someone at the You Yangs a while back casing one of the bottom doubles.
Can't see much bottom out but you can certainly hear the shock.

now that's gotta hurt.

now that's gotta hurt.

It's going to hurt more after his arse grips on the wheel which will in turn catapult his nuts into the seat post........aforementioned nuts will then be dragged down between the wheel and the chainstays.

Yeah, it's gonna sting.

 

[Mattydv]

I've always found that you just get sucked in to the seat stays, without much of a 'catapult' effect.

Either way, it makes me cringe for what's coming next.

 

[RYDA]

I have had the same thing happen to me, not good at all!

 

[jacko13]

Pretty well sums up why you should ride with clips on a hardtail.
Or atleast 5-10's

 

[Norco Maniac]
