www.bikefactory.com.au Hi, Nigel Abbot, Sydney Australia; well I’m about to go and test the Trek Remedy 9. It’s a bike that’s designed for cross country all the way through to all mountain, and it’s been loaned to me by the Brookvale Bike Factory. Go and check their website, bikefactory.com.au because you can sign up for one of their Trek demo days. Anyway, I’m at the Manly Dam and I’m going to put this bike through its paces, so let’s see how it goes. The transfer of muscle power through the wheels is delivered with minimal energy loss and stress on the body. You feel very powerful and confident on this bike in all conditions and situations. The rear suspension system is brilliant and its success is due to the combination of the ABP and the DRCV shock. ABP means active breaking pivot, basically it allows your suspension to remain active regardless of whether you’re pedalling, coasting or braking. The DRCV shock has two air changes. The primary is for small bunts, high frequency and the secondary is for bigger hits. The upside is greater control, balance and stability in all conditions. What I experienced with (01 was the ability to attack technical climbs with ease, regardless of being in the saddle or standing. The wheel seemed to track and engage effortlessly with the terrain. This bike has made me realise how vital your equipment is for delivering a maximum result. What really blew me away was the bike’s ability to descend at high speed and its performance with the …
The new 2011 Gary Fisher Superfly 100 Elite is one of the finest full-suspension bikes on the market today. 4 inches of Travel, 29 inch wheels, and cross-country weight make this a fantastic race bike or all day marathon rig.
On the test ride it had quick handling so if a tree jumps out you can quickly swing away with hardly any correction . It climbs well because the top tube is shorter and you sit into the bike . The front fork is out in front more so tracks better than the WSD 3 years ago ! Great improvement and yes I’d ride it ! Simpsonsports.com

This is me riding my 2010 Trek Fuel Ex8 on the Rivanna Trail from Hydraulic Road to Greenbriar Park in Charlottesville Virginia. A few seconds into this video I fell off the short narrow bridge. Basically, I got too close to the edge, panicked because I don’t like heights, and then it was all over. No harm though other than some scratches on my arms and legs from the briars I fell into. I’m going to try and eventually have videos of the whole trail system up. And yes I know that this trail system is primarily for hikers and runners and try my best to be courteous to them and get out of their way. If you enjoy my videos don’t forget to SUBSCRIBE!!!
