Will Weston from the NS Bikes / Hotlines UK team was one of the first riders to get the production version of our NS Fuzz. After few races we contacted him to check what he thinks about our first downhill frame:
The bike is very capable, responsive and has a good ability to accelerate easily on flatter sections of track.
Although the BB feels a little higher than my previous bike (Devinci Wilson) the weight of the bike still feels very planted towards the bottom of the bike allowing for great traction and a very comfortable platform for hitting turns hard. The bike is fast, and I set my fastest time recorded on this particular track which is very promising, despite very wet conditions.
In general the bike is very lively and great fun to ride and performs very well on some of the most challenging tracks out there!
Very impressed and I cant wait to show everyone what it can do, very happy!
Speaking of challenging tracks - shortly after this Will visited Poland to take part in the UCI C1 Downhill race in Wisła. On the muddy and technical track despite few errors Will managed to finish on a very good 5th place in his category.
