>>128634Yeah, I love single track for sure, was not trying to dis on it. The rails to trails is more of a distance endurance thing. I can do 60 miles in about 3 hours on the rails to trails. There's no traffic so I put my headphones, cruise as fast as I can, stop for lunch at the end, maybe at a cafe somewhere in a town. It's different but nice.
Single track is more like a series of sprints, a huge amount of fun if the trail is dry (never enjoyed mud much).
I see a lot of you guys riding dual suspension bikes and have to admit,
>>128194 looks like the best design I have ever seen. By best I mean your pedal strokes not actuating the rear spring, sucking all your power. How is that on new bikes btw? In the past, I always thought having a rear suspension was sort of dumb, if you didn't actually need it.
