SumoSam Posted January 8, 2015 Report Share Posted January 8, 2015 I do, but not like riding round a taped off field. More as a road bike I can ride through the woods on. Though I've just converted mine to 'normal' mtb bar...see how that rides Boardman CX team just if you're wondering Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isitafox Posted January 8, 2015 Report Share Posted January 8, 2015 I got flat bars fitted on mine when I bought it which makes it much friendlier when the going gets rough. Still just feels like a road bike getting battered when it's not on tarmac though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigman Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 I do, but not racing, it gets used on the local trails and is my go to bike at the moment. When the days draw out a bit it will get semi slicks and I am hoping to ride to work on it a couple of times a week, obligatory picture: I have to admit is a very fun bike and surprisingly capable offroad!

Ross McArthur Posted January 19, 2015 Report Share Posted January 19, 2015 Went along to watch a race yesterday. I get the feeling that curly wurly bars are a hindrance. A wide set of risers and the bikes would be so much easier to handle on the steeper bits and corners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CurtisRider Posted January 19, 2015 Report Share Posted January 19, 2015 Perhaps some suspension too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross McArthur Posted January 19, 2015 Report Share Posted January 19, 2015 Naa. Well, it didnt look to me that suspension would have helped any. .....Waaaaaaaaaait a minute! You taking the piss? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

isitafox Posted January 19, 2015 Report Share Posted January 19, 2015 How about this? Shortens the front end slightly but it feels so much nicer and much easier to control, been contemplating trying a set of low risers on there but first it needs a new saddle as the standard one is awful!

Culshaw95 Posted January 22, 2015 Report Share Posted January 22, 2015 I do partially but I find myself cycling it more on road to get home from work than I do off road. I have taken it off road though and it is fairly enjoyable I must say Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
