wow that is one killer spec list there and a sweet looking rig kind of hoow i wish to get my alpine look but its a long way off.
rate my alpine please..
I love the bars.. been looking for a nice red set.. you really have taken the Red to a new level..
A high roller on the back ay? find it better for grip?
SRAM gearing, im shocked you dont have the SRAM red cassette??
What you think of the breaks, im about to swap mine out for my Hope Tech X2`s with all the red hinting on them.. might even get some red hose!! Love this bike!
Yeah blackspire, anything blackspire is worth a look.
On order is a blackspire 36tooth chainring and ive got a limited edition red e 13 srs chain guide
haha loving the red!
but they're not going on till the weather is nicer!
So you rate the Maxxis.. i might look into that, Im in Cody weekend of the 11th Nov, think i might change up for that? still no time to swap my brakes over so that will be for my next trip.. i dont have a winter hardtail :-( but i guess i could build one up, Project for next year maybe, Funds allowing!
Gunna take a look at your bars now...
Haha. Yep the red theme is good fun.
Yeah i just put the maxxis on for winter, although if the weather is going to carry on like it was today then she'll be tucked away till next year and it'll be hardtail adventures for winter.
If the funds allowed i would def have the sram red cassette.
The brakes in the summer were bloody amazing, in the wet they need a good 30/40mins to chill out and realise "oh i'm supposed to stop the bike" but after that they're ok. could be better in the wet but then i suppose thats more the pads
Nice. I like the simplicity of Lapierres and the bang up to date styling. Does it ride good and what do you ride on it? Done any DH on it? Rate my rides plz!
Needed a little more air on the forks but all in all she hammers any terrain, once i changed the back tyre to a maxxis high roller it changed the handling again......and improved it ! : )
I've only done a few timid trails as its new, Will be going to do Whites level in Afan on saturday. Havent done any DH on it yet. The reviews say its pretty good at DH. i'll post back once i have
