I just wanted to give everyone a heads up that the 2018 Alta Redshift MXR demo has arrived at the shop! If anyone is in or around Colorado (or wants to plan a trip to Colorado) and wants to take a spin on the all new MXR just let me know. We are happy to schedule a private demo (you can bring friends if you like) for you.

Scott, Yours seems to be one of the 1st around, I'm not seeing much in the way of ride reports or dealer inventory arriving yet? Anything new to fill us in on? Thanks, JD

Hey JD,
We have been able to run a few demo days and have a good amount of customer feedback already.
Here is what we are seeing:
- Heat limiting with pro riders on the track (ambient temps in the mid to high 60s) is more or less a thing of the past.
- Map 4 seems to be a little more manageable than the 2017 model
- The suspension is night and day better! the 4cs was not even in the same class as the new AER.
- Run times seem to be pretty much on par with the 2017 (for me 2hr on faster trails is average but faster guys might see a little less)
- The fast charger is great! Tucker Saye was able to race our demo in two pro classes on a fairly fast track and never lined up with less than a full charge.
Truth be told, the bike feels like a more refined 2017 MX

Thanks for that Scott. Any comment on availability or wait list?
