10/07/2020 - A Very RocketMAX Week
A Very RocketMAX Week
Kind of by accident, it's been a very RocketMAX week this week.
Due to launching the RocketMAX Gen3 at the end of April, we couldn't get any riding shots or video done at the time. Now things are relaxing a little bit, we got out a Wharncliffe on a sunny evening a few days ago and got some sweet summer vibes going, courtesy of ace staff light wranglers Richard Baybutt and Darren Ellis.
On Tuesday I headed up to West Yorkshire to ride with Chris from Downtime Podcast aboard his new RocketMAX, and me on my recently refurbished version. It was proper British Summer, slipping and sliding on the steeps at Otley, then onto some great flowing, open trails on Ilkley Moor. Classic sideways-rain-not-cold-in-a-T-shirt kinda day.
Speaking of Fox, you might have spotted our latest Cotic convert this week. That's right, Jordi Cortes from Fox approached us to get a RocketMAX as his personal ride. There's a couple of great shots of the bike in this weeks' Dialed, and we'll be brining you the full lowdown on Jordi's bike very soon. He's has also been advising me on getting the Float X2 running sweet for the bike, so you can be sure I'll be getting you the lowdown whenever he comes up with a step forward.
We have good stock of RocketMAX frames right now, and the Five Land guys continune to build them for us, so you're never far away from your rad new bike. Lead times on bikes are pushing out a little because of parts availability and just how busy we are, but frames can be turned around pretty fast.
Chilled summer vibes? Step this way....
