Slightly ironic that on the day I receive my Mojo HD140 (after 6 looong months of waiting), Ibis come out with their new Mojo SL-R… and now I’m undecided and unhappy…
If I’m honest with myself, I don’t really need the 160/180mm capabilities of the HD, so 90%+ of the time the HD is going to be in 140mm mode, in which case, I think the SL-R will be a better option for me (why didn’t they announce it a week or two ago!)…
I’m nearly certain that if both had been available to order back in October ’10, I probably would’ve gone the SL-R – it’s got most of the attributes of the HD (without the extra burliness needed for running a 180mm fork or coil rear), it’s Ibis’s most ‘modern’ frame (all the new ‘standards’ in one place, new advanced layup etc), I can still run it 140mm rear/160mm front and can still slacken it out with an Angleset if I want…
Help me out here Ibisians (and interested parties), am I missing something? Should I stick with the HD, or bite the bullet and wait another 2-3 months for the SL-R… 🙁
