Lol I’ve preached my sermon
After a few rides here in NZ I now know what you mean with mud. Bike would end up tons heavier and clay mud gets everywhere (even used to bring a few worms home in it!), sticker kits being rubbed through in a matter of rides. that was part of the reason I sold I could see the maintenance going up and with limited time to ride, less time to maintain and old seals that have enjoyed a long life in dry climate I figured sell and when I find a friendly farmer nearby I can buy new or by dualsport (think NZ exploration is due)
And enjoying the trials riding (also tubeless lol). Went for a good fun trials busy bee session yesterday and feeling the effects of lockdown today
