Ahhh, Makara in a gale. Make sure you keep both wheels on the ground eh!

This is awesome bike and I want to know what is the price 12speed

That was cool lil runner bro… did you ever get around to owning one of their bikes?

I've had this bike for 6 months - it's the best. Absolutely love it. I've but coil on the rear suspension as well and it's buttery smooth. I wouldn't hesitate to buy the bike. Now I want to try the new effigear 9-speed gearbox. For reference I ride enduro on the BC coast and regularly hit 5-8ft drops and jumps.

Get one! Rear suspension is better than anything else. Handling is awesome with the gearbox putting the weight low and centred. Gearbox took me 5 minutes to get used to.

Nice vid and awesome weather .

Did you have a shitty day or did the day have a shitty you? Glad you were the former bro “Is that all you gots Welly”

Re: the cricket/static noise, I think that comes from the tensioner wheel on the belt. I got rid of that sound by wrapped the tensioner wheel with some inner tube rubber ;)

I've a Taniwha Trail. Best bike ever.

Once gave one a test ride down foo fighter at arapuke and found that the best time to shift is about (at low speed) a bike length before you need to

I’ve got a Katipo. Love it.

Man I love those POV shots. I'm no rider myself but I feel like I'm there!

those bikes are just amazing!! How cool would a Zerode Katipo E bike be tho

Great edit Tommo. I think you will find any 29er different. If you get it and try it on your local trails you will notice find out if it is better for you. Getting a demo isn’t easy in this day and age though!
