In the second part of our MBUK Machines blog (read part one here), we introduce the rest of the 2016 long term fleet of Mountain Biking UK, BikeRadar's muck-encrusted sister mag. Some of us are lucky enough to have more than one bike this year, so check out our initial opinions on the rest of the our rides for 2016.
Rob's Cannondale Habit 2
I've ridden a few Cannondales over the years, some good and, well... some not so good. After a couple of rides on the Habit I'm relieved to say that it falls into the former category. In fact, it's bloody ace fun! Coming with a dropper post, the bike bike is ready to help make trails even more flowy. I'm going to have to do some changes to the bike to make it even more grin-inducing than it already is, and I can't wait…
With a Lefty 2.0 up front, RockShox Monarch XX DebonAir with XLoc, Shimano Deore XT 2x11 and tubeless-ready Stan's NoTubes Arch EX rims, the bike is trail ready. It weighs in at 12.88kg (28.4lb) with pedals and Maxxis Shorty tyres.
