Nearby trail system and your favorite trails?
Sentiers de L’abbaye D’oka is the local trail system. My favorite trail is the Whole Enchilada in Moab.
What do you ride (type of terrain)?
Bike park and fast chunky trails.
What model and colour?
Warden RAW
How tall are you? What size frame did you get?
I'm 5’11’’ and chose the S4/large frame, with a short stem. It fits just right.
Why did you choose this model of bike?
I’d ridden the Chilcotin before, but I knew I wanted a mullet setup. I love the added playfulness and agility it brings to the ride. I chose the Knolly Warden because I wanted a bike that keeps that fun, lively feel while still being fully capable of handling big days and bike park laps with confidence.
