The other day I took my FSE to the enduro trail. That was really hard riding, 0.3 m (1 foot) of wet semi-packed snow. After one lap (5 km) I loaded up the bike on my hauler and went home. It was too much for me.
At home I unloaded ant went for a short trip on my local country roads.
WOW, this bike is amazing! The road was covered in melting ice, water, wet snow with ruts from the car tires. I was revving hard, I was going fast, then I noticed there was one more gear to go
Damn it felt like a freight train!
I cant understand how the bike can be soo steady at high speed, and also feel light and nimble in the tight and narrow trails?
If you haven't ridden an FSE450, do not miss an opportunity to do so if it comes along.
