I've been trying the Cube ltd race (hardtail) - very good value for money, and the bike feels lightening fast. Great wheelset isn't it.

My mate has a cube acid and he says its the best bike he has ever owned, plus its spec'ed very well for what he paid for it.

I did love my 2010 AMS 100 Pro R1, until Mountain Mayhem when it spat me off 3 times

Obviously it's nothing to do with the lack of skill from the rider, or the wrong tyre choice...

Great bikes, well made, superb value. I think I'll get another new one next year!

What was the beer consumption level at by this point ?

By brief ride across a car park to a cafe on Andy's bike told me it was very comfy.

Beer consumption for the entire weekend was 2 bottles of Bud on the Friday night, so I can't blame the beer!

Tis a very comfy ride, the bike is designed for long haul XC riding, think I'll go for a longer travel one next time in a smaller more chuckable frame size

16" by the look of it?

Mine's an 18, good for long distance stuff, but not as chuckable as the bike it replaced

16" next time for me too

We've just started getting the AMS 130's in stock, damn they look tasty

Good to see that you've already got yours mucky before taking the pics
