“…The ability of a good race bike to give that small but also massive advantage to a competitor is key, but what good is that to an expert level rider who would take an extra minute to ride the same distance? The Fury, with its incredibly intuitive geometry and well rounded suspension, truly will allow a weekend racer to go faster, which is why it is our top pick for 2013.”

This is part of the editorial comment on the selection of 2014 GT Fury for the downhill bike of the year on Pinkbike.com.

Read full article on Pinkbike.com and you will quickly realize that the choice was obvious – GT made a big step forward with the new design and suspension, and it has the victories to display the speed of the bike.

Same bike that was ridden by Athertons is now available to you – you can ride it to the victory on your next DH race or just have fun with it in the bike park!
