Haven't enjoyed riding my HT much (Merida with a crap SR fork) for a long time and recently found out I could hire a demo bike (Specialised Camber FSR) from an LBS. Had a ball riding some twisty single track with berms and a few modest jumps. Wow, mind blown at how good it was. I'spose skipping the last twenty years of MTB evolution will do that ! I ran out of legs well before time. A few more rides and I think I would be a lot more confident once I've got more of a feel for the bike but even so I cleared a few logs and steps I wouldn't have tackled on my HT, went way faster in corners, and didn't clip a tree with the crazy wide bars. I'm keen to take this bike out some more.
