    Nice - do you think you're a better rider now, at least on that descent, because you're riding it more often? my e2 has super similar geo to my other rig (zerode taniwha), but I'm a little quicker on that - might have to go down the custom suspension tuning route to level up the e2 as the...

    G’day! Managed to pick up a deal on a secondhand e2 recently, and am super stoked with this beast of a machine. It’s so much fun! Got a couple newb questions tho… …wondering if anyone here can recommend any frame protection kits, either full invisiframe or other… …and whether transport on a...
