What did you do TO / WITH / FOR your bike today!

Pfft. Without my glasses I’ll just have to trust you.
One in a ‘Sight’ please.

I can't even see it properly and I still like it already.

Looks like release is imminent, and Enduro mag might've jumped the embargo. Oops.

Edit: 170mm High Pivot! Faaaark that'll be a monster.

Here ya go, dad.

High pivot, idler, shock tunnel, looks like it's lost the Horst pivot, ugly seat tube tower, lovely British Racing Green.

I now expect you in a bow-tie at the next You Yangs night ride.

Man, all these new long travel high-pivot bikes coming are going to be beasts. Kind of glad I'm too scared to ride anything worthy of them, the (hidden) speed potential of these bikes is so high.

Thanks for googling that for me.

I think it's still embargoed so that's some pretty good Googling really.

Reminds me of my sweet (08?) Fluid LT1. Was an insane $9k bike at the time with i9 and all the fruit (I didn't buy new)

Thief: you clearly stole that linkage from a passing Ellsworth.

Otherwise, sweet looking bike.

You mention the techy nature, that's quite Mt Stromlo like, we need to meet there one day. Love techy(er) stuff.

Added windy AF and pea soup fog (camera doesn’t catch) to the holy trifecta of wet/cold/dark. WBDFQ.

Great video @Chriso_29er - chest cam FTW! I once nearly ate the most alarming amount of shit at the circa 1:56 mark, you handled that section much more smoothly. Tracks 3 & 4 area great fun.

Cheers hifi,

Yeah its easily the most techy stuff I've ridden, some of the uphills are brutal. If you make it up without a dab you're doing bloody well. I loved it, but would not be for everyone.

This was all footage from a long while ago. @moorey even makes an appearance in my part 2 video of the Southern trails lol, they're pretty full on in places. If you look closely you might even see his orange bike in some of the shots at the trailhead junction in this video haha.
