It could be a winner if they get the price right, i'd have one that's for sure

I live saddleworth and there are no legal trails, bikers are already frowned upon for just riding them, you can build the odd small jump or rock garden but most of it would get pulled down in a week so there's no point. Although there is some support for riders building massive landings and jumps would ruin our reputation and could end up in a complete ban of riding in the area, so we have to ride what're given. :/ as long as you pump the sus up before you do it it's usually fine
After snapping two norco faze frames in a year and a half of riding them norco deiced that they'd give me an upgrade free for a fluid frame instead of just sending me another, they even let me keep the shock of my faze and sent me a new free shock for my fluid frame :) anyway i've been running that for about 6 months now and i've not had a problem with it so yeah, cheers guys at norco. Also for any 'hardcore downhill kids' out there who only weigh about 7 stone and do the occasional 5 foot drop, you don't need a downhill bike! haha it's for more fun to do the big stuff on a smaller travel bike if you ask me :) personally i find it hilarious when i catch up to people on full blown downhill bikes when i'm only on a 130mm and there just there like damn must be the bike. Honestly the only justification for getting a downhill or freeride bike is if your racing or really are planning on doing 15 footers, i'm doing 7 footers to flat on a 130mm and although it bottoms out and some people may not like that, it's far more fun if you keep it and really improves your skill, you can pedal to the top an' all. Top job :)
That bike at 16 seconds is a bloody brilliant idea haha
To be honest there's nowhere else in the world i'd rather live for riding, sure we don't have a huge amount of uplifts and the mountain aren't that big but we have such a big riding scene! And whats wrong with rain? can't you handle it? haha In my opinion that's one of the reasons that British riders are so good. Also because there's no uplifts to spoil us we have to ride/push up, this may seem boring you'll be able to go a hell of a lot faster with that extra muscle. And the British summer is great too! Not too hot that you can't go on a decent xc ride but hot enough for some proper runs. And after a winter full of training in the rain you'll find summer a piece of piss. There's great riding all over the world and nobody should take what they've got for granted. Last summer i broke my back and only now am i back to riding everyday and the riding's great, there's nowhere else i'd rather be then the UK!
