Does the Roscoe have the srewed up fork geometry that Gary insists is somehow better, or will it handle like a normal bike?

G2 do you mean? Yes it does. If it handles anything like the HiFi Carbon Mike tested, it won't be a bad thing

I must have euro eyes. It's the Zesty and Canyon that appeal in this report while the Fisher has crude suspension and cumbersome looks.

Personally I too like the Fisher,  nice custom job on that rear shock to get around the crude design admittedly.

Roscoe looks brilliant to me, just the sort of bike I may buy next, thought I bet the affordable versions don't make the sub 30lb mark.

IT's meant to be a fantastic ride

But what about that electric Lapierre? That's the least bulky leccy bike I've seen

Faster than all-mountain, burlier than a trail bike.

 Not another subset of bike species, name suggestions please....

I think it should have 133mm back and front travel though just to seperate it completely.

Bah, Southerners are the best riding, there's barely a couple of people on here that could show me up, and they're all southerners too!

Mike,  thats only cause the more north you go the harder the terrain gets and the more time you have to spend recovering from injurys.

Southern terrain ='s safe and therefore great for training!!
