TESTING HAS BEGUN!!! (223MM ROTORS ON TRAIL BIKE?!?)

Stoked to bring you the first vlog from test day one at Innerleithen. This was my first chance to actually have a go at getting a solid base setting and trying out new things. I had a coil shock, new TRP 223mm rotors, Troy Brosnan's signature tyre (Dissector) to try out, so there was a lot going on. I stuck to the same track that has the highest speeds so I could really give the bike a good battering and to test the brakes out etc and its always nice to keep the same trail as it's consistent and you can compare the feelings between runs as you swap stuff over. Overall the bike is incredible already and I am super comfy on it. Probably the most comfy and fast I have ever felt on a bike before actually which is really confidence boosting for me. Tudor who is wrenching for me this year did an awesome job and I think we will gel well together this year. We have a couple of these planned before this season kicks off and looking to get to Fort William to get runs in on the DH track which will be perfect testing before EWS Rd.3 at the end of May. Make sure you give the video a like and comment below with any questions regarding my set up or feelings on the products etc. If you have not subscribed already then please do, it goes along way!!!
