Took the new MUni out for about 7 miles of rolling trail yesterday, my first real ride. It was so fun, just giggled a lot. The comments from the mtn bikers were classic: "Couldn't afford the rest of it?" "2 wheels are for sissies!" "That's sick!" "That thing come with suspension?"
I live in sunny Southern California and am meeting Terry from this group to ride on Saturday. Jim
I took mine into the three LBS' in my immediate area yesterday (looking for trials tubes for my 19"😉 and the guys there were all well impressed by my MUni, and the comment that we are going to take them [MUni's] out to woodhill (our local MTB forest) this weekend gave them something to think about in awe. Freeride is a wicked uni!
I went from MTB to Muni myself, and now MTB feels kinda empty. I got into MTBing thru adventure racing, and it seems you have the same XC background. If that is true you might feel different about technical downhills later, for I do now. I have a Nimbus with a busted rim from that, and I can't wait for a stronger one and some body armor to get back at it....
