Pinned TV dives into our LITHOS range
“The best bike we tested so far”, so the final thoughts from Jim and Nicola from Pinned TV on testing the LITHOS 8000 and 6000. While that is an amazing statement, their test ‘journey’ did not start as promisingly as they hoped.
Receiving their test bikes at THE MERIDA EX, just a couple of hours before the racing started, they did not have the time to set them up as you normally would when you pick up your new bike from your dealer. And you would not start racing them in a 3-day multistage enduro, where stages are raced blind, either as your first ride. So, our LITHOS had a bit of a challenging start, but as Nicola pointed out in their detailed video review, ”by halfway through the first day I was starting to get used to the character of it [LITHOS 6000]”, but once through that and summarising her testing experience of the LITHOS, she stated, “the best bike we tested so far”.
The story wasn’t much different for Jim, who chose the LITHOS 800O. He also needed a little time to settle into his test bike before getting the most out of “excellent suspension” that “lets you get away with anything”. He continues that they are “super happy to have these bikes”, that they are “so much fun” and that they are “So nice. Easy. Easy to ride”.
Their final verdict:
“They are easy to ride and a joy to ride and the handling’s lovely. Everything about it is lovely. Everything about it is nice…the best bike we tested so far.”
