Default '12 podium

Finally got the '12 on the podium today, a 2nd in BSSR at the High Mountain Dirt Riders (Cruiser's club) harescramble in PA. This was a great course, more tight and technical than open and fast. Bike worked great. I had the PFP cranked up a bit much so the fork was a bit stiff but it all worked out. A big thanks to Evan at Solid Performance for the quick turn around fixing up my shock, worked great.

Thanks guys. I've run my old bike up there often, so I'm happy to see the '12platform works for me too. This was a really good course, these guys are great and know what a real woods race is. No MX track and field BS. The single track was lock to lock tight in spots with technical rocks and several creek crossings with steep banks. There was a grass track section mowed through 4 foot tall weeds, like a big corn maze with a few long straights! One thing for sure is this bike has some serious top end power and overrev, just keeps pulling. At the last race my shock was really acting up, it was hard to control the bike. I needed it straighted out fast, no time to send it to Les or experiment myself. Evan did a good job, complete service and added the needed rebound valving.
