Decent ride today to get my bike dialled in. In fact it was superb from the outset.
Suspension is excellent - small bump, bigger impacts, all excellently handled. Jumps with high confidence. Suspension in more poppy than I expected, 500lb spring helps so thinking I’ll just keep it (even though it’s a bit heavier than I need).
Rear suspension is well damped, ramps up quickly in the PRO setting and gives approx 170mm of travel in this configuration.
Running it with flip chip in 29er, with MX setup drops the BB a bit too. Handled some fast flat loose corners well.
There’s a little bit of noise from the idler, not bothersome, but noticeable over the other Avinox bikes I’ve tested.
Stack is low, so 70mm riser bars help a ton here. Was thinking of trying with 180mm out front to raise it up a bit, but rode so well today I don’t want to change the balance before I test it some more.
Had a fast blast today with a lunchtime charge to top up the battery.
