@@TrailFinder what are you swaying towards if you don't mind me asking??? An XC bike for some of the stuff you ride will simply make it delightful in my opinion 💪🏻
@@johnster187 I like the bike you mentioned. Also the Scott spark rc and the Santa Cruz blur. I spend most of my times in the dales. So one of those would be perfect. Then keep the ibis for uplift. Alps and techie Lake District rides
Hardcore XC, great video.
@@garymartin557 thanks Gary
Sounds like someone's talking themselves into a hardtail. Go on mate, you know it makes sense 😂
@@Stopadoodledoo 🤣 I’ve never actually ridden one before. Everyone you’ve talked into getting one seems to enjoy it.
@@TrailFinder there’s a reason for that mate, they’re ace. Would be brilliant for trails like those 👍
@@TrailFinder invest in the Stanton Switch9er hardtail and you won't regret it.......# Steel is real 💪🏻👍🏻
140/150 hardtail goes great alongside my enduro bike. Perfect for these rides and can handle some gnar if things get out of hand 😂
Another great video as usual Andy. Superb climbing, u didn’t even sound out of breath 🤣
@@zacdavis2504 cheers Zak. Just wish I was faster. Maybe time for a bike change. But I don’t do bad for an old guy on a 16kg bike 🤣
@@TrailFinder you do brill mate. U going for an e bike like John if you do 🤣
@@zacdavis2504 keep thinking about it. But don’t know if I could 🤣
@@TrailFinder nothing against them, a brilliant bit ov kit for anyone struggling with difficulties. 👍
@@zacdavis2504 I agree. I think it be fun at 1st. Then I’d get bored on the climbs. As I really enjoy the challenge.
Another great ride Andy 👊🏻.
Thanks 👍
Why not treat yourself to a New YETI ASR XC bike and try the loop again!!! 😉😉 Thx for the content, excellent stuff as usual. 🍻
@@johnster187 lovely bike. Especially the version with the automatic flight attendant suspension. I’ve actually got my eye on a bike. 😉
@@TrailFinderdo you just have the one bike?
@@johnster187 yeah just the one. But may treat my self to an xc bike.
