• cos he has a gravel bike which are prefect for bridleways?

    But if he's going to carry on riding bridleways and not suddenly start rocking up at bike park Wales. What would he have achieved by buying a slack trail bike?

  • There are plenty of bloody good MTB trails close to London. If he wants to just bridleway bimble/smash, I question the need for an MTB at all

  • No I get that and if he wants something to just have a laugh on, then you and Dammit are right. But as I say, knowing Hippy, he may well fancy riding it across an entire country or continent in one go and not Peaslake.
    In which case speed and comfort would be better than chuckability and radness
