While this is quailty and always good to see, the greatest thing about this sport is, there is no mecca no holy grail no unltimate spot. For mother nature changes it every time you ride.

boo86, it's 16 degrees in england at the moment what are you talking about. tackies are for when it's well below freezign and not before! GROW SOME!

Mr. Valentine Love the photos. some real crackers in there. Did I see a shot of the lovely Saughton skate park in there?

am a fan of the tune. I'd just like it recorded that i would have won.......... but i didn't enter.

@NsGreg. http://2009.nicolai.net/manuals/manuals/11-Fig_Horstlink_09.pdf I haven't gone all mental or childish just debating the point you raised. Which in the most part are wrong. I do feel your first post was way off the mark which is why some people went a little over the top... nicolai do push their bikes forward G-boxx as you said, just cause it's ugly and mark ones are heavy doesn't mean it isn't a step forward. The Helius AFR is a big change from the FR and it has a lower BB height slacker angles everything you asked for......

@NsGreg They do use a horst link see any bike in the Helius range all Horst. So you know a guy with a light nicoali but still choose to say they are heavy? So it's less of a freak out man more of emmm your facts are wrong and you pretty much admitted it in you last post. save up some money and buy one you know you want to!

The best bike I've ever owned. Looks amazing, rides amazing and the welds are possibly the prettiest things I've ever seen. I heard somewhere that no matter your welding experiance Heir Nicolai wont let you work on the bike till you've had a years training. Says it all really. Form and function all in one!!!

@mattf hook me up who is doing what?

I'm sorry but it's not going to stop you being a wheelchair in certain crashes. It will save your neck i grant you that. Unfortunately there is currently nothing on the market that will protect both you back and neck.
