I kept putting off writing this review because I kept looking for something that I didn’t love about this bike. But I just really didn’t ever seem to find it. Other than the bike under-performing and feeling rather “ho-hum” with a Fox RC4 (and fortunately, the frames can be purchased with just about any shock on them), I honestly have nothing bad to say, other than the random, cosmetic nit-picking that Morewood already addressed for 2011.
The Morewood Makulu proves that you don’t need a complicated swing link bike to deliver an exceptionally plush, responsive, reactive, and efficient ride. I would strongly recommend this frame to any and all downhill riders who appreciate the simplicity and durability that single pivot bikes offer.
