After a bit of a wait and some back and forth, I finally got my Aeris AM built up and out on the trails.
I took most of the components from the old AM 9, replaced some worn drive train components, and threw in the new Vivid Air shock.
Absolutely amazing bike, feels so much lighter and more nimble than the AM9, geometry feels a bit more compact and manageable, and it’s so nice to have everything working as it should. Jury still out on the shocks, but let’s give it some time. Oh, and have the Mallet E pedals a whirl - very nice.
Big shout to David at Bird for the build, and Dan and Ben for tolerating my impatient badgering.
Bikes are cool.
