Sam's just getting into riding a bit more so it was good to take her some where with way more flow than Afan. Shes done the Penhydd trail before but preferred this. Definitely worth the extra miles
Would highly recommend it, even for me the trail was cracking fun the Green route flows well with some little pulls up hill but nothing to bad then, fast flowing rolling descents with nice berms to play on. The blue loop is an extra option and although it has a sizable climb the downhill is cracking fun, table tops, bomb holes some wood stuff and huge berm to finish (although not as big as the red and black routes!)
Also the last downhill section is awesome! Super fast, flowing and great fun.
Rode the route on the Ti 29er Lynskey with a rigid Nuke prook fork. This frame is great and as it says on the tin...built to go fast.
Brechfa is fairly rocky but didn't struggle with smashed wrists or bad back once. The natural give in the frame takes the sting out of the trail.
The frame loves to fired down flowing single track and pumped through the ups and downs.
Did ghost shift a little when i stamped down on the pedals in my usual club footed Singlespeed style.
So far so good though! Expensive mistake other wise!
