• The Megatower (which is 160 F/R) felt like it'd roll over anything in Morzine, which is why after riding it for a week I was convinced that a shorter travel bike was definitely what I wanted.

    I did try to hire a Hightower for Morzine but literally no hire place had one - "the English, they want a Megatower or a V10, there is no demand for a Hightower", said directly to me, presumably I was counted as being Flemish/other for the purposes of this.

  • I think that's a fair assessment. Given the amount of 160mm travel bikes at Peaslake, the English are going to need 200mm for those alpine blue runs....
