>>1859447>Today, with your faggot 770 mm bars and short stems is PEAK consumerI wouldnt call that peak consumer, short stem, wide bars and slack HA, the whole neo-mtb geometry is excellent and a continuation of the what the 90s mtb started...issue is with materials, the whole carbon everything, must have big wheels, integrated cables and the rest of proprietary nonsense...and (((racing))) being presented as cool as opossed to freeriding.
geometry and riding position has advanced, became more reliable, more safer, less OTBs, it became more specialized but it helped trail riding. One trend i dislike is the pursuit of high speed control as opossed to low speed fun, here rediculous HA, full suss and 29" comes in its place but it sure doesnt make ridng more fun, its like a fast bus ride.
