Iscg 05. I'd be willing to put a decent sum of money.

Still on 26 here and getting by just fine but it is already getting harder to find wheels and tires. Not impossible but harder.

I'm on a mostly stock 2010 enduro comp that I picked up used a few months back. previous owner barely touched it. I love hitting jumps and am fairly smooth. Haven't had the chance yet to go big on the enduro but I'm going up to snow summit bike park this weekend. Anyone owned one of these who can report on how it does performance wise and durability wise in bike park situations? I did my research on the bike but didn't find anything about how it will handle occasional park days. If it's not a good bike for the park I may just rent a big bike. Thanks
Hi, look at Gwin in South Africa Pietemarisburg 2015 (I'm pretty sure, that I messed the name of the town). He was on Enduro with doublecrown. It will survive the beating! I guess it passed a good benchmark.

Except it wasn't a standard frame.
Nor was the nukeproof mega Sam hill rode.
They had all been made specifically to take a DC fork.

Maybe he did...
But mrgonzo is asking about the comp 2010 not a newer evo......

Aren't they the ones that came with the future shock 160mm dual crown? I wouldn't bet on them taking a DH dual crown.

So today I've been riding my bike all day and it worked just fine but later when I got home and took it off the car bike rack the lever to the rear brake didn't react until just before it was touching the handlebar..and theres no sign of fluid leak

Any ideas?

Air has got from the lever reservoir into the brake line. Stand the bike the right way up, with the wheels fitted and pump the brake until it works properly again. 4-5 pumps should do.

Get your brakes re-bled sometime in the near future.

I did exactly that but nothing happened and bled the brake like 2 weeks ago

It might take a few more pumps. Had a similar issue with my brakes (no bike point whatsoever) and after pumping for a minute and knocking against the cable and lever everything went back to normal.

Did you bleed it or did a professional bleed it?

I pumped the lever for like a minute and it got better but it's not as good as it were before so I'll just have bleed it again I guess

And yeah I bleed it myself, only done it once so maybe I did something wrong
I remember fluid was dripping from the lever bleed port when I were pushing in on the syringe, and the syringe had like tons of air in it so I figured maybe it wasn't sealed and I both tightened and losened it but it was still dripping
