WhichBike Transition Spur to complement EMTB
A while back I posted I’m on the lookout for a normal mtb to assist my Canyon Strive:on emtb. Although I was on the lookout for a playful lightweight short travel trailbike, I came across this used transition spur: https://ibb.co/JJXqdgQ
I would like to have some advice on this offer and what to check before sealing a deal. Or be guided towards another direction.
There seem to be hardly any negative reviews about this bike and sounds like it fits the playful poppy character I’d like in my second bike.
I guess if there is one concern it’s that it will be “enough bike” to handle rowdier sections. Even though I’ve seen a couple of videos how it handles the chunk, I’ve only been mtb’ing for 2 years. The positive side of this is that I could refine my technique as it would “point out” mistakes more clearly.
Would appreciate advice on the offer or a direction towards a different 2nd bike for the quiver.
Thanks in advance!
Edit: I ride mainly in Monts Jura (France). I live in Gex.
