It's September tomorrow, you've got a few ducks to get lined up! The people have a right to know!
Haha. I ordered a spare rear hangar too. I'll probably never need it but you know..
Cool, almost yeti colour. And it will fit 26 wheels if you get sick of 29. Win winOk I've placed the order! Assuming it doesn't go tits up, this will be my new bike -
Ragley Big Al (XL). I have a 170mm Ascend dropper, Sam Hill Horizon pedals and a pair of Pink DMR Death Grips too. The first thing I'll save for is a new crank as this one is a bit shit supposedly.
So excited!

For your brakes, find a steep bitumen hill. Go to the top. Pedal super hard back down and brake as hard as you can (without skidding) once you reach max speed. Repeat until pads feel good.Yes! It's shipped! Delivery date is 21st September.
Any tips for bedding in the brakes?
Also, are there any issues with taking it for a few rides with tubes then converting to tubeless?
I usually bed the brakes in by starting on a trail and realising super quickly I didn’t bed them in and poop my pants a little bit - then I bed them in.Yes! It's shipped! Delivery date is 21st September.
