Every time the likes of Stanton drop one of these videos, thoughts always turn to getting a hardtail again. Then you realise that you’ll never ride it like these guys but you really want one anyway. And do hardtail riders seem to find the best places to ride or what?

New Zealand hardtail connoisseurs can now get their fix through new Stanton distributor Adrenaline MTB who’ll be bringing in the full range, including the new Switchback that’s getting the good treatment in the video.
