yes more and more vids like that! Finaly some understanding might grow that man doesn't need go big with big bike to not go home, contrary: have great fun with light shredder! Or is it just for old guys like me? :D GREAT VID! I wonder which bike he rides, Blur LT or Nomad.

Yes, looks more than promising, performance and weights are just unbelievable but.... Kashima coating is still a slap in the face of those who were hardly able to afford any of Fox racing forks. They were always most expensive scrown forks on the market (well latest BOS 160 fork sort of pushed the envelope even further or might even have torn it apart like Hulk does with his shirt). To afford a new one you have to be in the wallet group of those who easily afford Carbon Nomad, Crossmax SX wheels, Formula R1/the One brakes and Thomson/Chris king components...

I have an old 08 Nomad with similar setup, at least with Lyrik U turn up front and 740bars. For Carbon Nomad to work great in AM element it's pretty clear, as I can't blame mine for anything. I wonder how this one will ride in some Aggro XC with frequent ups & downs with lots of roots and stones, as mine deals with it surprisingly well for such a big bike. Looking forward to see more from you
explore it's "do it all" to the limits please

What's funny is that these guys are shredding trails on trail-bikes faster than most ppl on DH bikes

4/21/2016 10:18am Kinda strange to me... but well after revelation got 150 and having a Lyrik up there, Pike became a bit... obsolete? why would someone buy PIKE? So maybe that's the answer. Still... somebody please R&D a RELIABLE, air sprung travel adjustment for 7" forks, preferably with independently adjustable po and negative chambers. No U-Turn-air, ATA, Talas and especialy 2step are...

4/21/2016 10:18am Never ridden Formulas properly (only: hey friend let me ride UR bike for a moment) and at the same time, never heard a bad word about them. Said to be the best power/weight ratio on the market with excellent feel and reliabality. They are expensive though (even The One FR) and above all you absolutely need the bleeding ki -t...

4/21/2016 10:18am For there is Shimano Saint thy shall have no Gods above it! Saints provide lots lots loooots of power at minimal fade.
