Don't Buy a Guerrilla Gravity Trail Pistol Carbon

[LPG]

Medium Long I reckon is the go, similar size to my Paradox L and a bit roomier than my Medium Optic which was always a touch short

Im a pretty average proportioned 179cm and fit my AM9 in ML pretty well. I think I would be happy on a large as well if I went from a 45 to a 35 stem. Even if the reach numbers are a bit scary their size guide seems pretty good for average sizes and is based on a 40mm stem. Unlike some bikes they don't seem to ride like boats despite the lengths.

Pretty good comment from GG on the MTBR thread, good to see they've finally owned the situation!

Good to see they've owned the situation. Sucks it wasn't dealt with properly but at least they've admitted fault.

Oh I forgot about the YT Izzo, didn't it get a good rap when it came out?

I’ve read lots of great things about the Izzo

I'm just waiting for Bird to confirm that they have a green one and send me the tracking number.
Because I've learned my lesson and purchased a main stream bike with local support....

Anyone know much about the Kitsuma Air? Seems to be a decent option for us Fox haters.

They're pretty good. Compared to my X2 I'd certainly say they leave nothing on the table. They're so much easier to adjust whilst riding due to the dials.

No experience of working on them though.

I challenge you to build a bike from Kickstarter purchases only

Theres a vid where they compare Spur, Ripley and Izzo.

Link -

The bloke from straightline, I'm waiting for a cartel hit as he's riding through the forest.

Have not watched this one.

EDIT : Just watched this one, both bikes do not have trunnion mount shocks, the Spurs is standard.

The Spur and IZZO are the first short travel bike EVER to pique my interest. I think I need another bike.

 

[komdotkom]

I couldn't see a frame only option of the Izzo, so didn't look into it much.

Ackos back with his man crush

Scott are confusing, they like the 'Spark' name so much that have called every FS bike with 130mm or under a Spark for 10yrs.

So the RC is now 120mm, they dont make a 100mm XC bike anymore ?

Interesting that they have the 130mm forked trail Spark and 120mm forked Spark RC both with the same HA at 67.2 on both bikes.

YT customer service as good as GG. A quick gooGle will bring up lots of issues!

Yeah, saving for a new bike. Keen to try an idler bike but that Spur sounds good!

Carbon repair kit?

Carbon repair kit?

I thought it was a shock alignment kit. Each sticker adds a mm. So two stickers on left side will move it over 2mm.
