Review (noting different spec to the above was tested):
“Flow’s Final Word: Curve’s new DownRock is a very worthy example of the modern trail hardtail, and it’s real-world proof that considered geometry can make all the difference – even if you don’t have a rear shock.
The DownRock embodies the inherent advantages of the hardtail platform. It’s responsive, agile, and ludicrously adept at carving turns. But with the chunky Pike, high volume 29er tyres and the long front end, it’s also capable of revving up to some ridiculous speeds that’ll have your adrenaline pumping in a way that full suspension bikes can only dream of. Carmody has managed to maintain a terrific balance between stability and agility, something that isn’t easy to do…..”
