From Enduro 06 to this....
A sad day, umm im not too sure
. I had to get rid of the Specilized Enduro frame due to one thing and another.
Swapped the frame to this On one 456 summer raw and upgraded a few bits. Revelations 140mm 2010, Newer hope mono mini brakes thanks to the bro. This will be my winter bike untill I get a full sus next april time. Probably an ex demo for around £1500. then keep both and have two bikes.
Here are some photos before I take it to Cwmcarn tomorrow. Before anyone says, the saddle may be too high, Seems ok in the street but I'll never know untill tomorrow.
From this:
To this - Ultimatly my second bike.

That saddle looks a bit high 
Baggy and no pockets.Sometimes thicker too.
Great ... torn ligaments today
That's gonna ruin my planned trip to Wales next week.

Not sure mate, not been to A&E yet. My mother in law was a nurse for many years and checked it out for me. It's either torn, or really badly sprained. So it might be around 6 weeks. Problem with ligaments though are that they take so long to get back to 100%

Presumably a DH one will be baggier since you'll usually be wearing body armour underneath.

ouchWhich jersey are you getting?That's what I was thinking. Really considering one now, providing I can get one that isn't TOO baggy
I have Troy Lee and Fox DH Jerseys and the fit is loose but the sizing is spot on.
I have that one and it looks stunning - I was wearing it today around Cannock. Being long sleeve it's not ideal for hot days (20C+) but the fabric is very comfortable.
Where did you get yours? The one I linked only has it in small :\
Also I'm not too bothered about it getting too warm, that's what I want it for tbh. If it's warm I've got plenty of short sleeves I can put on.
Also what's the sizing like? I'm 6'1 with a slim build (Dunno chest measurements).
I can't remember where I got it from.
I'm also 6'1, weigh about 86kg and got the XL with the plan to wear it over body armour which fits fine. It also works well without the armour.
A couple of photos from my Scotland trip last month - without any armour.

Only S and XL :/
