As of Sunday according to your post you looked at the Carve you didn’t ride it …. You say the Zendit is just a plow everyone else says otherwise and your basing this on the geo numbers which on the medium large are very similar to the the LTE you have in Large. Infact the wheelbase you keep...

You haven’t ridden the Carve tho have you ? Also my last bike was a Druid Core with 170 fork with very similar geo as the Zendit, it was perfect for every trail as bpw , I can’t think of one that’s so tight the Zendit would struggle on your talking like the Medium Large is about 3 meters long...

So now it won’t even work at bpw ….🤦‍♀️ Anyone reading this will clearly see by your comments that something doesn’t add up With your rather strange opinion…. Again it’s not a downhill bike it’s a long travel all mountain / Enduro bike and not as long in travel or wheelbase as the Karve you...

Your chatting nonsense im afraid pal, its not a downhill bike ffs 😂🤦‍♀️ it’s an enduro , you compare it to a bike with more travel and say that’s better , you say it’s too long but you think the Whyte again is better even tho it’s longer 😂👍 It’s only going to be good at some bike parks but you...

I live in the uk , there’s loads of decent enduro type trails and bike parks all over ? If you want tight twistie trails you should be looking towards a trail bike not an enduro in my opinion but each to there own

Have you got a pic of it with the 200 dropper installed buddy ?

The seat is not in the way for most people on a medium large , the standover becomes a problem on the large and XL when the seat tube is much longer , unless you have really short legs anyone at about 6 foot on the M/L wouldn’t have a problem with the seat when the post is dropped. You seem...

I get what you mean but I don’t think that’s what Rob was getting at. He’s saying that on some frames with tall seat tubes you need to be able to slam the post completely out the way for clearance, it’s not about whether or not the insertion part is completely in frame from an aesthetic point...

The only thing that is a disadvantage tho is the seat tube length but everything else is not odd it’s inline with most other Enduro based large bikes , at the end of the day there’s always a compromise, if you want short wheelbase then the new Amflow is great but you then loose out on travel and...

I’m not sure what all the bs is about sizing , if your going by the geo chart rather than actual reality/ riding it then the M/L is almost the same as all other Larges ….. with the exception of maybe being slightly longer. It’s more to do with if you prefer a smaller bike over something larger...

I’m still finding myself thinking about buying a Race but ultimately I chose me Forbidden core which is ace but still fancy the Mith ….🤷‍♀️

You probably won’t notice it until you remove the chain and try and spin it , if it’s tightened to spec it feels partially seized

Idler pulley bearing drag I absolutely love this bike but I do have one gripe ! The idler pulley bearing choice and seating is awful ! If you torque it up to spec the bearings feel pinched slightly and are unbelievably tight it’s like the brakes are on which will absolutely have an effect on...

Well that’s certainly some good for thought…. It’s definitely got some length but I have been riding the Forbidden Druid lite that’s my wife’s new bike in an s3 and or tho that feels smaller in the reach to my amazement it wasn’t a huge difference to the Unno in s3 when using the same bars and...

So S3 - Large in the numbers looks big, wheelbase if true to the chart is the longest ive seen for a while it’s actually longer than an XL Amflow but more importantly can anyone give a review on how its fits and feels in real life ? I’m 184cm tall barefooted so I find myself between large and XL...

Now everyone has had a good year on these radial tyres , what’s the preferred psi for the sweet spot front and back ? Magic Mary ultrasoft 29 front Albert soft 27.5 rear …… 🤷‍♀️ 85kg rider without any kit

Looking at the failed bearing’s solid lube compared with the ones that okay it looks like it’s contaminated, I would think it’s been like that from the start…. New bearing and I’ll keep my eye on it hopefully it’s was a one of

Looking at all the reviews available at the moment they all favour the Lite ! Coles opinion from the latest Loamwolf video confirms it , if you read his insta post and comments , he said he really liked it but it doesn’t come across like that as he wanted more time on it , he’s said the longer...

Yep I completely agree the only issue being if you want one of these this year you have no choice as there are no spare bikes or any bikes to test so you have to be brave and take a chance. I think to be fair to Cole who tested it he’s pretty neutral usually in his opinion but you could...

Not the best or most encouraging review unfortunately. Sounds like it could be one to perhaps wait and see it try and ride before buying …… I absolutely love the bikes looks and Forbidden as a company but maybe the Amflow is still the safer bet ….
