Made a move recently from Cannondale Bad Habit XC to Offering. Noticeable weight difference when climbing (from 12.7 kgs to little over 14)but super safe,forgiving and fun on flat and downhill technical stuff. Still getting used to it
Love both of these Offering videos. Here's my dilemma. I want one. I have a nicely appointed Tallboy (your video on that bike was so good!). I realize they are different bikes in different genres. Having ridden both, what would be the +/- of making the switch. What would I notice? Better climber? Better downhill? Etc. I'd love to demo but that seems to not be a reality anymore. Thanks.
I love my Offering 2 . I’ve got a push coil and now run it in low . I’ve fitted a 1.5 degree angle headset. So I’m probably 64 degrees head angle. I’ve tried the other settings and I’ve found this suits me the best . Guy how does the Offering compare to the Trek ex ? I’ve been looking at the reviews. Might change in the spring. But is it worth it ? 👍
Looks and sounds like it will go out of the box......but 14Kg that is one heavy bike !!!...London Bus springs to mind.However excellent review as always Guy,top shelf Sir.
Interesting. It's certainly a super useful feature and I I wasn't carrying extra camera/battery stuff in a waist pack anyway it'd probably be a big decider for me too.
Absolutely BRILLIANT review my man. I ride a 2022 Following but all of your comments ring true. 😎

Hi Matt, I'm picking up the new TB5 for testing tomorrow so that'll give me a fresher comparison. Give me a kick if I don't get back to you soon tho.

the trek not as good, climb nicely but the fun and performance on the way down is nowhere near
Hi, how the loopholes wheels has been doing? Thanks
Nice Guy! I've a large Wreckoning demo bike now along with my own Insurgent MX if you fancy coming over for a ride in Calderfornia sometime :-) Sam
single pivot is that strong to hold the bike not crash
GOOD UN'

Unfortunately that's about the average weight for a bike in this category now. Even carbon frames with carbon wheels.
They’re cool bikes but I can’t live without frame storage now. 🤷♂️
