The much anticipated, brand new GT Force made a just-in-the-nick-of-time arrival onto my doorstep, one day before its launch. Somehow I managed to build it, knock out a few laps and get some riding clips and photos before the sun set. This is the first Enduro rated bike with a high pivot / idler combo that I've ridden, so needless to say I've been excited to check it out. I'll be spending more time in the coming months on the bike, but for now you can glean some first impressions from the video below as well as from slightly more thorough, but still brief "first ride" report on www.mtb-mag.com
