    I never got tired of people telling me I was missing a fork leg

    I had zero problems on a 140mm lefty with spv and it worked very well

    altho I think it might have made the bike harder to flog

    Wants 40mm more travel.

    NTTAWWT.

    For the record - that thing is an abomination. If someone wants a gravel bike, just get a fucking gravel bike.

    Bike *might* last 2 rides with WR2's. Having 3 would be a good idea - you may be able to get the broken warrantied before you broke the other 2.

    You wouldn't add a dropper if you wanted a "trail" bike? I sure as hell would. And WAY meatier tires. I ripped the sidewall on those Vittoria's just looking at them now.

    Wait... integrated dropper?

    on the ibis front- I love the company but whatever the bike shop people tell you about wait times for a new bike, just go ahead and add 50% of the time quoted #bubbleburster
    It's worth the wait imo but I hate the anxiousness so just steel yourself

    also if you get *too light* of a bike, you will crush all your riding buddies all the time and you might as well get an e bike :P

    Thinking a 120mm frame. The intense sniper trail is in the 24 pound range...doesn’t look flimsy. It is $6500 bucks....

    My Medium S-Works Epic Evo weighs over 23 pounds. My XX1 SB100 weighed 25lbs. If you want a 23-24 pound bike its gonna be 100-120mm travel bike and it will break if you smash it.
    a positive attitude will not solve all of your problems, but it may annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    I weighed my bike tonight. It's 32.8lbs. I thought it was closer to 35, so WINNING!

    You're lucky. When I weighed my 29 pound bike it turned into a 31.5 pounder.

    Mmmmmmhmmmmm....you should investigate that "flimsy" claim a bit more.
    It makes perfect sense...until you think about it.

    I suspect there's logic behind the madness, but I'm too dumb to see it.
