97 AF

Post by britincali »

Is friggin AWSOME!!!!!


Took her out for an hour or so just now and its just unreal, so much smaller and lighter than the steelie, it gave me 100% more confidence and I even hit a few decent hills without being made to 8)

The vibes are not as bad when you are rolling and when your stood up almost nonexistant, I noticed I stand a lot more due to the 2x4 seat so I know its gonna help me.

I got real squirley a couple of times and it was the kind of stuff I would have dumped it on my steelie but on this one I just flicked it back the other way.


Im completely 100% sold on this bike, I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I also have to (I dont want to but have to) give Rjacks props on the boingers, they felt stiff as hell in the shed but they are unreal on the whoops, stuff that would have bounced me all over the place was just soaked up without a fuss.

Im soooo fukin stoked about this thing!!!!!!
