After spending a considerable amount of time on the Jersey Devil
FS I came to the conclusion that my riding style would probably be better suited to the HT. I made a phone call to Edwin at Van
Dessel and presto a
JDHT is headed my way. The
FS is a great bike and I would
recommend it to riders who want comfort, performance, and are big hitters on the down hills. I am pretty conservative on the downhills and I spend a lot of time standing on the pedals so the
FS didn't become that
necessary for me. I'm really excited to get a chance to test ride and race another Van
Dessel bike. I spoke with Adam
Lisonbee and he told me he loves this bike, I think he even said it was lighter than his SS which is mind blowing to me.
OOOOhhhh rear carbon stays, this should be ultra comfortable and light.

Thanks to Edwin and everyone over at Van
Dessel for the Formula 1 style quick change. I mean you gotta love not like a sponsor who takes care of you like this, now just imagine how they take care of their customers who actually buy bikes.

Sweet.
I think you will like the HT. My JDHT is lighter than my RT because my SS wheels are BEEFY. I am going to convert them to tubeless though, so that should save a few grams.
Cool!
Are you racing at Blue Mound 12 Hr?
