Back in April I had an Orange Gyro (full suss 29er) on demo for the weekend. Smashed all my Strava PBs as you'd expect on a new bike and managed to get up and down a few sections I'd never ridden before.
Since then I've been setting about getting all those "achievements" back. The times and all the descents were beaten pretty quickly, but there was this one rocky climb that I've just not been able to get up and it's been bugging me.
Anyway, this weekend on the new (26") Five I finally nailed the sucker!
Just wanted to share 🙂
Isn't the new 5 a 650b?
Your 29er proved all the hype is true now the 650b has proved it too!
"The" new or "a" new 5?
If the former then that's definitely 650B.
That's why I put 26" in brackets. It's a new 2013 Five, one of the last of the 26" frames (picked up with a tidy discount when they brought out the 650b version).
Edit: I guess I should have said "my new" rather than "the new" to avoid confusion.
