THE UPDATED VERSION of Gusset's aggro all-rounder holds its position in our cockpit charts as well as it holds your position on the trail. The 760mm width boosts steering leverage and there are cut marks if you keep clipping trees.
The
extra width has been added without affecting its balance of accurate feedback
and shock absorption too. On the trail that means decent traction information
transmission without tiring slap and sting blowing your arms up on rocky
trails. The backsweep and upsweep are pretty neutral so it feels natural from
the start, and the red, black and blue colour options are the only remotely
bruising part of this well-priced 'everything you need' bar. We've seen Slades
survive serious slams and it comes with a two-year limited warranty too.
