Finished the GT Tequesta yesterday so first ride today....bright sunshine, warm but very windy out....out onto the trails and its like hitting a brick wall....the wind is relentless....suddenly my 32x18 seems hard work....bike feels light and nimble though....climbs like a dream....trails are damp and muddy....I'm enjoying this....bunny hops are so easy over the roots....bike is best described as "flickable"....I had hoped I wouldnt like this, but I do, a lot....through the mud the bike plods on....no mechs to worry about....home now and I'm pleased....
but
go to adjust the brand new DMR Tension Seeker II....bolts that should come apart are seized....bum....only option is an angle grinder to get the thing off my dropout....&5%£$$$$....
Returns sheet printed to CRC....tensioner packed up....bike in 1 peice minus tensioner for a few days now :roll:
Best (and worst) ride of my life
