the very latest cutting edge cellulose fiber materials used to provide a 5% more compliant frame whist remaining 4.2% more stable at speed.

I read a blog this morning where someone, with an air of guilt, said ‘I know that putting a suspension fork on my gravel bike makes it a mountain bike…’ what?? Are there rules about this which have passed me by...? Someone at the weekend looked at my Stanton ti Switch9er and said ‘…that’s not a mountain bike really, it’s only an enduro bike…’ … well I’d just ridden 50km of hard linear off-road both up and down…all these rules of nomenclature and kit….

just ignore them all bud,who cares what they think it is…..if you like it that’s all that matters
