Post your 2013 ride.

Yep



Unsure, but in my humble opinion, suspension is as good as suspension gets so I don't want them changing anything there. Think this is an aesthetic change only.

Frame looks much lighter

I thought Hungary was flatter than Paris Hilton. The only event I know is the Balaton fest because the local dirt guys rave about it.

The Buda section of Budapest is actually really hilly. It definitely looked like it had some riding potential, which was confirmed when I saw a dude pedal by with a DH bike and full face on.

That's coz it has an air shock


Should be light anyway with my BOS Idylle RaRe air - looking at 35lbs'

Yes, you are absolutely right.
There is even a train that you can use to go up, but usually it is full with people.
I rather go up by car, and push up the bike to the trail heads.
The traks are fairly short but very challenging.
Check these pictures to get and idea about them.

Your tracks look pretty awesome to me!

No doubt, that air shock is pimp and light! But I think it looks like they shaved some weight off the frame as well. Put it on the scale for us when it comes in!

That's awesome. Than you are in much better position than I am in Warsaw where the biggest hill is build of demolished buildings rabble. Hell I just checked and my distance to real mountains is bigger than yours to Maribor and Semmering. I never expected it's such a good location.

It seems that you are right.
I have just been to Kraccow (what an amazing city), and have met several MTB-ers.
They have very good opportunities as the High Tatra is very close and it has several places o ride.

Though I can feel your pain as originally from a very flat area where the biggest obstacle are the river dams.

In case visiting Budapest and planning to ride as well, feel free to contact me.

Great, thanks.

Krakow is a nice spot for local tracks but the High Tatras are a national reserve park so no riding ouside of a few small hill. There are quite a few tracks nearby though. The only problem is most of the dh tracks stopped evolving a few years ago since we have 3 builders dominating most of the spots. We have a few new more fr-ish tracks (not really park tracks outside of one) but it's still far from what Austria, Slovenia or even Ruzomberok in Slovakia have to offer.

Since I won't be on a big bike for sometime, trading down to an enduro/am rig. Going to try to race some enduro races. So, come Jan/Feb i'll be buying/building one of these. No expense spared kinda build, never went ape****.

Have they set an availability on those yet?

[CBJ]

You must be new around here two weeks of course.

When I last spoke to Kev 2 weeks ago he said they just finished pre-production sample so Between Dec-Feb for frames and build kits. Which is perfect for me as I wont even be in a position to ride until then or later.
