I find the standard saddle on the Tero 4 is very comfortable.
With regards to tires, I ride technical rooty single track and found that the 2.35s were simply not capable of dealing with this as if you ran lower pressures you could tell the rim was not having a great time!
The 2.6s allowed me to run 25psi at the rear and the rim then didn’t make contact with roots etc.
When I wanted to try 2.6s I couldn’t find any information as to if they would fit. I emailed Spez UK who thought they would but I should check that I had at least 5mm clearance. I have 6mm at closest points.
I run a tubeless setup and have found it to be very reliable.
I did find the forks were not up to what I do, but I don’t think the Tero is really aimed at Surrey Hills XC in standard form. I have fitted Rockshox Revelation 120mm travel forks and the improvement is outstanding. However, the originals will work just fine in most situations.
I’m saving up for a Turbo Levo Alloy comp or maybe a Cube. Won’t be till next year though so depends what is on the market then. Loving the Tero 4 and with my upgrades it is a very capable XC machine.
