Yes, syfydryn is open. However, the hippity hop section is closed due to felling. No idea how long. Hopefully not as long as zorro was 😅

@@ridemtb5146 Great thanks dude.

Thanks dude!

Thank you, it definitely is a bit tricky of your not used to these sorts of rocky trails. I remember doing each of the black trails for the first time and had absolutely no idea what lines to take and even walking a few times 😅.

Thanks for the sub! I've subbed back. Glad you enjoyed it, it's one my favourite places to ride, im lucky i live fairly close

@@ridemtb5146 cheers mate!

Yes, i try to do as many of the trails as possible with all of the climbs which is probably why it's a little different to "correct" beast trail.

Thank you. I used to do sprints up it too haha. It's a lot steeper than it looks. I haven't been up there for a while now but it's a lot different than it used to be.

@@ridemtb5146 Oh yeah, I can't find a video that shows how steep it is, it's a character-builder haha You still in Aber?

@@SavingPrivateBob it's hard to show on gopro how steep anything is unfortunately. And yes I'm still in aber.

Who wants to see a boring slow tech climb 😂. Thanks man!

When I was using it, I used it with low speed open and 1 or 2 clicks of high speed. But i won't recommend this to anyone as this is what i found best suits my specific riding style. You might have to experiment on what works for you.

Thank you 😁

Oops my bad, geography's not my strong suite haha. Thanks for letting me know dude! 👍🏼

It's great! The video is composed of riding from several different days, but this is what i would normally do in a day. And yes, the climbs are all fire road.

@@ridemtb5146 cool thanks, definitely going to try to get there this year. Looks like so much fun

My next goal!

Thank you, appreciate the kind words!

Hi, yeah that was me. Great meeting you guys and glad you loved the place, feel very lucky to be living here. Maybe I'll see you one day at cannock! 👍🏼

Thank you!

They are such amazing frames!

What frame are you riding there mate if you don't mind me asking?

@@warrenthomas7415 its the 2019 big al frame 🙂

Sorry man, I've not ridden it enough to know. But i did this when i had only 1 years worth of experience.

Umm i ride them regularly so don't really find them too difficult. But when i first started, i would have said Italian job with Zorro being a close second.

Hi, I've done plenty of lower leg services on this for but it's a bit hard to record at the same time. I'll give it a shot though, but if you need help with it, message me on my Instagram __ridemtb and I'll see if i can send some videos.

Hi, sorry for the late reply. I believe all the new suntour forks are adjustable with the plastic tokes as you mentioned. Im not 100% sure if this would lower the fork or simply limit travel and have quicker ramp up. I can confirm the tokens are now rubber and simply click on. As for the squelching, it went away after a month of use. Can't fault the longevity and ease of servicing. I had a hard crash landing a while back which blew the damper oil out. It was easily serviced though, all i had to do was open up the damper and pour some new oil in and it's been fine ever since. The squelching did come back after the damper service but has now gone away again. Im struggling to find other forks that's up to the same standard without costing me around double of what i paid for this. If you're looking at similar forks, such as the aion, i believe you can upgrade the damper and spring on the air side to basically work as well as the auron. But to do this, you'll need the exact length and stanchion diameter internals as far as im aware.

Thank you!

This one's the fsa light Gravity handlebars, I've just sanded it raw.

Thank you!

Thanks man! I'll get some more of your riding when i can keep up better 😂

Thanks man, really appreciate it!

I used to not like it much, but I'm starting to go faster and smoother on it now which is making it enjoyable. And deffo agree about the woodlands being close. Wish more of the trails were like that.

Thanks man! Always trying to smooth out my riding so means a lot that you're noticing it.

Hi sorry for the late reply. I would say whatever fork you buy depends on your budget as obviously there are much better forks out there. But i would 100% say these are worth the money. I believe they are meant to compete with the likes of fox 34s and rockshox pike. The rockshox and fox maybe very slightly more plush but for a brand new set, the suntour is almost half the price. The serviceability of the suntour is amazing too, I've broken the entire fork down and built back up with ease and minimal tools.

@@ridemtb5146 Yes I have found a more suitable option a manitou machete which is supposed to fit the plus size tyres I plan on using but thanks anyway

Thanks man!

Thanks man, and definitely one of my favourites too!

Thanks bro, and I quite like the sound of just the tyres rolling on the dirt but I think will add dome commentary eventually in my later videos. Possibly will start doing some mechanical tutorials too.

Haha yes mate I am! Was nice meeting you.

@@ridemtb5146 cool channel man. Always nice to see the local trails. Gimme a shout if you ever fancy going for a ride.

@@sambennettworship4267 im down on the trails quite often, if you follow me on insta and give me a message so I know it's you, we can plan some rides 🙂. Insta: __ridemtb

Thanks dude!
