Re:
What dropper post are you running, because I'm struggling to choose one for my main trail bike which is limited to 27.2mm options.

Re: Re:
I'm running a 31.8 old Fox Doss. If you need 27.2 there are quite a few options now I think.

The 2.8 Maxxis tyres roll much better than the Nobby Nic I had on my Transmitter.

Re: Re:
It's a different world to the sonder. Much faster rolling and more responsive. It is quite outstanding. If you drop the hammer it just takes off along the trail.
The Sonder was really fun but the 65 degree head angle made it feel a bit floppy and it was a little shorter than the cotic. It was great for jumps though.
Hope that helps.

Re:
That looks rather splendid
I've often pondered getting a set of 27.5+ wheels for mine. Is that the Mk3 frame with bolt through rear end?
I wax lyrical about how the Solaris rides to loads of people, I'm sure I go on way too much, but you really do have to have a go on one to fully appreciate how well they ride.

Re: Re:
It's the latest version of the frame, not sure what number though but it does have a boost 148 rear axle. I rode it at the North Downs on Sunday and it was brilliant fun. I'm going to switch to 29er wheels for the winter though to get through the mud.
