    We are excited about the soft grips😅 now that's a update I couldn't live without. That should have been scripted a bit better. Heard the forks are not the same either turkey. Stick to riding you were good at that! Looks much more composed in the rough to me with the new chassis !

    Sorry you are upset. We gave a review without making the video a documentary & made it simple. Some people don't want all that. We go for a more direct approach. Glad you enjoyed the MXA video! We have at least 3 test riders on every test.
