Guts effort riding like that after being off for a while injured , new bike and busted ribs. I reckon that’s the way to go that kind of bike. With geo the way it is now the trail bikes are very capable. Crazy good riding mate , totally enjoyed that vid. Merry Christmas to you and the fam .
Bloody hell, you're doing well to be sending it so quickly after a stack like that 💪🤟 Great trails , cool vid. I'm looking stepping it up to a full sus , but still not sure what type to get. It looks like a trail bike might be a good choice. Might go test one. 🤔
@@JEMTB90 Nice ! Cheers for the response man 👍 So many types of MTB these days. I've only really got into it earlier this year, and now I want MORE !!! 😄
@@midlifesendermtb2178 I'll definitely do some shopping around. I don't know if should just get an Enduro or get a trail bike. At the moment I'd say an Enduro is more bike than I need. But I'd like to get to the point that I need one 😄 Cheers ! 🍻
How did you get that bike on a demo? It's winning ALL the awards esp for best specced value full suspension.. the new fluid is supposed to be a superb bike. Not just XC either.
@midlifesendermtb2178 yeah I've been considering it ever since pinkbike went all in on it. As did the other major mtb sites. It's more than enough bike for me and I also like the blue you had too. Looks sweet. Thanks for the reply.
@@midlifesendermtb2178 Did you like the look of the Blue/Bronze or Silver one better having seen them both up close? I'm guessing you bought the Silver one from your latest vid, but they seem to be hard to get at the moment. Glad you're still loving it!
@@midlifesendermtb2178 I'm 6'2" and wondering if I could ride a large comfortably. I usually ride XL and was thinking a smaller bike would be more fun.
@@norcalchrismeister my large fits pretty nice.. but would say the large it’s probably on the small side of large… I’d prob stay with XL in this bike. Have you taken one for a test ride?
Awesome riding as always shano! Especially coming back from 8 snapped ribs 🤙🏼
Hell of a first ride back. Impressive.

The fluid is definitely a great all rounder. Awesome climbing and very capable for descending too.
I love it, which is why I bought one. 🤙🏼

Yeah dude small bikes are sick.. worth a look for sure

@@MTB_MICK maybe a 140/150 would suit .
Good going up and good going down
Really considering buying this for my first Fs
Good job
Bloody impressive how you bounce back after a big off like that shaneo. Demo is Chinese for “ken send it”
You have to jump straight back on the hoe hey
🤘😜 yeah the boys !!
Cool ride.
What did you think of the fork ?
It’s ok for a trail fork… not much chop on the rough stuff… I’m pretty heavy tho

Yeah that was a demo… after that ride I went and bought one… I’m 100 kilo and it takes most I put it through… would recommend
