Interesting Comparison

1995 Spesh FSR Meets 2007 Spesh Demo 8 for a ride down Snowdon.

Also in attendance was a mrk 1 bighit and a Palmer replica FSR, we had the majority of spesh DH bikes it would seem!

The 2007 looks like it's been run over by a truck!

Bet it doesn't go uphill as well as the '95 either! :evil:

Both very cool. Got any pix of the four together? Now that would make a good photo.

Liking the '95, something looks different about that shock area though??

Some kind of upgrade?

Sadly not, it was a ride with almost 30 university students on it so it was quite hard to arrange. I did think about it afterwards but it was a bit too late by then!

Why bother riding uphill on a dh bike when I can use my XC rig?
