>>1209604Rides real nice! Got the dropper post installed today too and did 2 test rides. Compared to my previous budget 29” hardtail it’s amazing how well the full sus climbs and also descents that are a bit scary on the hardtail cause no drama at all. It’s surprisingly lightweight (~12,5 kg, same as my hardtail) and really playful to ride.
The lower bottom bracket will take a bit to get used to, pedals strike a lot more often than with previous bike when powering over obstacles/climbs, but I suppose I’ll learn to position the pedals correctly once I get a bit more kilometers in.
...just waiting to get overconfident on some descent and flying over the bars, it’s a bit of an old-fashioned/xc geo and small travel so it’s not the best downhill bike.
