Yeah it really is a shame, the bike performs awesome and in my opinion looks it, the non- Lal Nucleon doesn't have the same pazzazz imo! Not the best climber, and I'll be taking a look at Lal new Katana and consider one of those to go along with this one of these days

Hey no, no issues so far! It's been great, some minor derailleur adjustments here and there which is to be expected. I guess the one question I'll need to ask Cedric about is stretch on the cable for the damping rod inside the frame. But no issues on my end!

2/14/2024 10:00pm On a scale of 1/10? 7. I don't want to ride something that looks awful (to my eyes). Have always enjoyed the over built look/industrial look. Ugliest bike iv'e owned..probably a 2006 Cove Playmate FR. Though it was awesome. Looks play a factor, always have.

I love it so far! Is an amazing descender, just wants to eat. Haven't ridden it a ton or at any resorts yet but so far I feel faster on it then I do on my 'big bike'. Which is an older (2016) Nicolai Ion 20 or whatever it's called. Could be the high pivot, could be the duel 29'ers I'm running or could just be my mind. Will have a better idea once I get a little more time on it. Climbing it's not bad, can be a bit lethargic as the PB article mentioned. But as of right...
