The hardest time trial I have ever done

Valy said:Holy shoot! There IS rear suspension as well.
Have you done any DH races?
bonk man said:I was considering doing a bit of off road but the wheels are so small they get stuck in holes.... the forks are also a bit flimsy looking so might well just bend. Bridleways and towpaths are usually ok.
Might try a bit this summer though, the local hills are pretty ridable, I would have to lower the gearing to cope though, 48 tooth chainring and 17 tooth sprocket with the 4speed Sturmey should be ok.
Downhill on the road it is quick, aerodynamic and the suspesnion irons out the tarmac so it feels smoother than with a normal bike. It also weighs a ton
