I have to say - this is an intriguing build. Looks like an XC rocket 🚀 ship.

2/8/2025 5:17am Yes, VAT can be paid at customs when you import bikes to the EU, not a big deal. BUT I live in Austria and we also have to pay an extra on top of 15% for a full bike (due to weight) and 7,5% for frames (due to weight). The UK has such a vast landscape of great frame builders...

As an owner of a Zoceli bike - I have to say this bike is quite tempting!!! But how in gods name can I justify an other purchase!? 😂😁😇

It is very lively and poppy, even with a coil shock, not sure if it's because of the EXT storia but surely something to do with the high bottom bracket and overall geometry. As an analogy, it corners sharper like a rear wheel drive car. I have 29ers and a 27.5 too and I can say mullet is really the best of both worlds

Interesting! You had exactly the same experience with the Stumpi Evo as I did. For the first time since I've had a steel Fully, I don't want to sell the bike straight away! It will stay with me for many years! But in my case it's a handmade steel bike from the Czech Republic!

I'm fairly certain I want something in the 150-160mm rear travel range. This is actually being decided primarily due to me wanting a 160mm fork. I think having a fork around 160mm with 36mm stanchions is where I want to go, and a balanced f/r suspension seems nice to me, especially if I want a 27.5" rear wheel... I would be open to the idea of a well-managed 140mm rear suspension platform. For example, 140mm with rearward axle path. This is also being affected by which bikes are available these days with a gearbox, as I've committed to that being...

Thanx. I had already the Fox36 at home, so I was looking for a color that is an complimentary color und I chose that blue. In retrospective I should have chosen a darker one, but that is hard to tell with a simple color chart. But it´s great nevertheless . I have met Martin (the owner of Zoceli Bikes) in Dresden (Germany) at the Bespoked trade show and we became friends. Talking to Martin is quick and on the point, no long explanations ;-) And I wanted to support a small one-man-show with my money. AND it was a great...
