Mainly ride cross country/all Mountain, not many DH tracks I can easily get too unfortunately!

Hmm, think it was the ice tech rotors and SLX brakes.

Avil ball, Bratton, Dunkery, Combe Sydenham

What's your favourite part on your bike?
Have to be the wheels, super light, make an incredibly irritating noise and look sick!!
