      Awesome now I'm not ridding a hardtail. The Turbo Levo eats this up in trail mode.

      If you like the feeling of holding onto a jack hammer you'll love this trail. The title is perfect....Rocky HORROR. My bones hurt by the end, riding over all those rocks. Didn't enjoy it sorry!

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
