I Understand now. I don't know how much you mean to expend on your Heckler, but I can tell you about a shop in NY who will be delighted to assist you in your personal needs and they ship overseas. I don't know whether you gonna believe me or not, but the Heckler had been down on my shopping list last year before I came into the conclusion it was the Slayer what I wanted. On another note, I know of some guy in Colorado who can sell you a Slayer for some £1700 (maybe less). He does all the sizes but you need to wait for some time until the one which will suit you best comes in the shop. The only catch is you are very likely to pay tax on it.

Taylor (Brule in PinkBike) said to me in a post (he was going on about his new AM rig) he had to sell his because of the Slayer's leverage rate. Apparently, he's way to heavy for it (this in plain English), so he's got himself that Ibiss he's riding now to make up for the loss. As for my experience with it, only to say it has taken me quite a bit to come up with the right setup for it, but now I have the sweetest ride there is in the whole of Birmingham (I've never seen better ride in my neck of the woods, honestly). What really surprises me about my bike is the fact that you don't do anything to it, and the f*cking bitch speeds the hell out of you (and I've only got two chainrings). The ride is quite awesome as it is and it is easy to bonny-hop or manual. And because its geometry is so perfect, it sort of boosts your confidence up in a way other bikes just don't. In one word, it is just a f*cking do-it-all AM-monster which only wheighs in at 31pounds on a bloody scale.

oh! You seem to be a really nice fellow. Me too. I do some street, but I am not half as good as I am when it all comes down to freeriding. I've only been doing it for 4 years (I was a skater before) but I have progressed through it quite nicely. At the minute, I am riding a Slayer SXC, but the setup is more for AM. I haven't got very strong lengs though, so I hate going uphill, but I usually do when I have to. Just one more thing. The Nomad is such a good bike I quite don't agree with you when you say you want to swop it for a Heckler. Do you not think the new Blur will suit you best for what you want?

Well mate, I am just like you. I am from Spain, but I live in this country, so I can speak English. I am Master Philosophy and I've also studied in English, so I guess this is probably one of the reasons why I can speak it. And yes, by the way, I just have read too much Tolkien, but you too, so fair enought. Can I ask you one thing. Are more into Freeriding or just XC?

try not to be so ignorant when your bashing on people, it makes you look useless. Homophobe, really? Does that have anything to do with pinkbike, no? Let's leave it at home then, thanks.
