How's the 150 Lyrik up front vs the 140 Pike feel? Thx

Is the weight difference noticeable when you want to point the front tire somewhere on punchy climbs?
@MINIMALmtb10 күн бұрын
@@User-j5q7r hmm not something I’ve really thought about. Can’t say I noticed any differences from the weight. It rides a lot better than the pike in my opinion, though it does have a better damper so that’s part of it

@@LEGENDofBEANY this is one where it’s kind of hard to explain but I pedalled the road up and took pinch flat alley up to Cabin Fever and Cabin Trail to access.

Yea that whole trail that was used to access the original trail has been combined into one trail with an obvious entrance off Cabin. Log ride has been replaced with the metal bridge at the beginning. It's definitely different than it was before but a huge upgrade IMO. All the rock lines are still there
