He's right on with the small fiddelly bleeder screw.Have 12 hrs on the bike now so need to take it in for a warranty service.I have gone 3 clicks harder on the front compression & 2 clicks on the rebound to slow it down.Now Working even better.The back just does it's thing with no funny business.Todays ride was on wet clay/rock & pine forest with plenty of exposed roots.Real slippery stuff but once I got the knack of changing up quicker than usual & letting the bottom end lug it around,it was fine.The bike handled all the roots & logs perfectly while taking the bigger hits on the open farm land sections.So another big tick in the terrain test box.Nothing negative to report so far.ummm? Air filter a bit vague getting it seated properly if I had to find a problem.But that could be me.We are going into winter & the stock tyre is just not doin it.Threw the back in favour of a Metzler MC5 but kept the front which is going well.
