nice ride nearly bought 1 my self. Thing that took me to buying the orange was its more aggressive downhill behaviour, feels more sturdy and less twitchy at high speed which is the way i ride.
My crush is being resprayed under warranty, what colour should i go for, white or the plain madarin orange? (the orange isn;t like mine it has no sparkle) cheers n enjoy ridin

Top bike mate bet you love it. love my 08 prefer the decals on 08 model but bet that air fox is the dogs. found the std tyres on mine grip great but are heavy and dont roll. just had demo day at my local cannock chase tried loads of bikes - cotic,santa cruz,norcos - rocky ridge is up there with em and at only a grand it takes some beatin, check crushorange my mate another top hardtail similar ride, good mods on his looks top. what ya think about green subrosas with black hope pro2s on mine?

pipus replied... on 28 February 2009

just changed those hefty tyres for bontrager mud x for the rest of the winter,to help keep the speed up without getting bogged down, puttin on the spanks with big rubber when the drier weathers here, mainly trails xc riding with a few drops/jumps thrown in, try and take the fun line not so much the racing line, no lycra, no spds - kinda wot the bikes designed for strong frame more travel sort of light freeride without going to full sus, prefer hardtails sharper handling with loads of feedback, think you need to be a better rider to ride a hardtail fast there not as forgivin. will update pics as soon as.

MTBMeister replied... on 25 February 2009

oh n the fox floats r gr8 by the way, can hav sum gr8 fun wen changing the rebound, really gud for jumps on the mountain trails we do

MTBMeister replied... on 25 February 2009

yeah wud luk gud compared againt the white of the bike. Why hav u bought them or r u getting tehm? Iv already chekt out ya m8s orangecrush..nyc bike. He woz the one hu told me 2 chek out yors lol

nice trail hardtail, its just a shame they flex so much but i suppose it depends on if you like a bit of flex with trail/xc bikes

jim bob sway replied... on 1 April 2009

the fact that it flexs (abit) is what makes it so good at what its built for, i mean, after all, its not like its an xc bike
