Jay's riding in this Truax promo vid caught our attention, so we asked him for a couple shots and some words on the Shore vs. the Coast.

Check out a couple sweet shots from Margus Riga and Jay's vid here...

Seriously, thanks for the great coast plug and we are happy to have guests. The Coastal crew have a few "secret" zones but only because they are on private land.
Although the weather is a bit rough today. It's like minus 1 and there is almost a full CM of snow in Sechelt this morning.

I rode a Truax courtesy of the great crew at Fanatyk this summer. It was a great bike, and definitely well-spec'd. The only shortcoming was the Domain DC (triple clamp) fork, which may have been a WBP-specific setup. The lack of tuneability was a hindrance - you don't know the value of independently-adjustable high-speed and low-speed compression circuits until you don't have them for a change. (My personal whip has a 66RC2X) My hands were cooked a lot sooner than usual. But the rest of the bike was a winner!

I've ridden all of that, the rock line at :50 is effing gnar! The vid doesn't do it justice, way to shred!
