First Ride on my new Morewood Makulu

first couple of rides on my new 2010 Morewood Makulu DH. My garage was broken into and 3 of my bikes got stolen and this was the replacement some 2mths later. Was absolutely loving being back on my own DH bike again. There is an epic crash at the end which was a result of me hitting that rock garden faster than I had done previously, a testament to how good the bike felt. I prob should of set the suspension up better but was too keen to ride her. Bike was fine as it flipped and landed on the seat, I however wore a few grazes. excuse the riding, admire the bike

[ThreeDimension]

what does it ride like? i was thinking about getting one or a 224.

@ThreeDimension - Amazing mate!! I'm coming from a Sunday & a Glory, and this thing is unbelievable!! weighs only 17.1 Kgs with that build too

[ThreeDimension]

@8weapons Awesome, do you have the stoy on it? Whats it like, i hear its better then dhx/ rc's but no where near as good as a CCDB.

[8weapons]

@ThreeDimension - yep BOS Stoy, Brilliant!! makes harsh landings and big hits feel like nothing! I think it would be very similar to a CCDB, wouldn't say the CCDB is better. But yes much much better than my old DHX no question! nice ansd simple, pretty much set and forget

awesome bike, awesome riding. I live about 3 minutes ride from this track, but i stopped riding in 09 and only just started again. I was 14 when i stopped riding though, mainly due to too many serious crashes. started back up again and a few friends are building our own track, good times.
