My bike wasn't built for this...

Made a bit of a bad call a year or so ago when I bought a nice lightweight XC Mountain bike with a couple of inches of travel. Yeah, it has been fun blasting around the trails at Llandegla and Coed Y Brenin, but I've managed to destroy a rear shock, kill the original forks and rip apart a crankset.

Just recently I've been hitting the Delamere jumps with some geezers from work. This is something my bike was never built for and I can hear it crying as I launch my unskilled frame off each bump.

Watch this space for details of a new build over the summer and check below for pictures from last nights Delamere session.
