People are right, ive never seen a claud butler win botm, and thats the reason, you cant hide from it.
Peachy Won bike of the Month, by doing a good job with a good thread.
I never thought im my wildest dreams i would cast a vote for a Claud Butler, but i did.
:shock: Cheers Carl,
And thanks for your (albeit brutal) honesty…and your vote.
I’m never quite sure if my build threads hit the right spot, I know some do prefer a quick fix…
As for your Review of the CB MTB range… I would almost agree, I say almost because yes, they made some odd decisions and proffered some very underwhelming crap bikes…but… there are one or two that I might hesitate to say were perhaps a little above average although admittedly not the "very best" back in the day. Ones such as my Reynolds 653 Antaeus with full Deore XT. (drcarlos still races his partially XTR upgraded one with some success)
If you are at next years Mountain Mayhem (and if you can get on it) you are more than welcome to take it for a spin….
Steady on old boy, ....
I think the next BOTM will demonstrate the one or two quite well, dont you...
