what are these red color things appearing on the black top tube sometimes. Are they hidden decals? Looks very cool. I so hope I could upgrade my old 08 sortie sometimes to this newer beast.
nice, I had the 2008 sortie 2 australian version with upgrade of fox forks and mavic wheels and stylo cranks. What pressure do you run on your rear shock and your weight? I found that the little bridge in front of the rear wheel hits the seat tube now and then when the rear shock bottoms out; It sometimes bumps up my front mech even; Also the front cable routing going underneath and the dirt can get into the cable hold on the frame. Do you have these sort of issues with your sortie?
I run 145psi in rear at 160 lbs with gear. I don't have any of those issues? Runs smooth and flawless! I love the cable routing, nice and clean and I can get a good yr + out of derailleur cables. Love the bike!!
@MrDiamondDave Hi, thanks for your reply. Yeh, mine was great as well, only a pain when these issues occured now and then. Have not seen any real sorties around here much at all and this makes my ride a bit more special. Ur 10 frame is actually improved over 09 version, and they might have address these issues. Where were you filming at? I am located in Sydney and rode around manly dam trail here. cheers....
