Terrengsykkel Posted in Mojo HD / HD 140 18/04/2011

Terrengsykkel out of Norway just did a head to head test of the Mojo HD vs the Carbon Nomad. We're not adept at Norweigan, and neither is google translate if you plug in the copy-but it is pretty fun to see the results. If you download the PDF bottom of the page, you should be able to grab the text and translate the whole thing. It's fun.

An MTBR reader however, is good at translation (or really good at BSing) so he translated some good lines for us:

In technical climbs it’s better than all other hard-hitting trail bikes we’ve tested. The rear wheel follows the terrain without losing any speed. Most of the long-legged trail bikes lack the quickness/easiness that is required to conquer the most technical and demanding climbs, but with the Mojo HD you get the response that you need.

In quick downhill runs with pedaling, curves and jumps the Mojo HD really shines. It feels at home in the air and is very easy to control. The efficient suspension design inspires to speed. Both test riders experienced that they continuously put that little extra in, just to ride just a little bit faster. The part where the Ibis-bike isn’t entirely top notch is at utterly brutal downhill runs. Compared to the Nomad the Mojo HD doesn’t give you the same sense of security when the rocks get bigger and drops get higher.

The Mojo HD impresses from the very first second. The bike handles everything from varied trail terrain to long and sketchy downhill runs. The nimbleness, versatility and playfulness of the Mojo HD makes you fall in love with the bike, guaranteed.
