How come it’s a Black Diamond doesn’t look difficult.? Is it technically challenging or just fast?
@brakeswideopen55623 жыл бұрын
That’s the trail rating according to the trail network but to be honest it’s probably not a black in most places. It’d be a blue in NZ compared to some of the trails I’ve ridden there. There are a couple of technical features that the footage doesn’t really do justice to but for the area it’s relatively technical. Brisbane just seems to over rate the trails for some reason.

@@b4bnik it climbs ok, it’s no light weight bike and it is a long travel bike so doesn’t climb like a goat but for it’s class it climbs good. You sacrifice climbing for descending always, if you aren’t racing or planning on hitting DH trails or decent technical trails then you may be better getting a shorter travel trail bike.

There is a B line for it though and if you go slower over it the transition is smoother as well I think. The course looks pretty mellow for the next round out at Kooralbyn and you can do as many runs of each track as you like. Have a go mate, you should be fine
