how was that Maestro? I currently own a trance X series, and I used to have an X series reign (the glory hole years) and I fell in love with the linkage. I rode your exact model glory in whistler last summer as a rental and it was a fricken sweet ride. much snappier and lighter than most other DH rigs that ive ridden, also the way the seat tube angle places you so close to the rear axle path. That sort of gives you a false sense of feel in the length of the chainstay, it feels much shorter than it actually is!
nice ride!, I was on lunch break so all I did was lynx, it felt super light and yeah it doesn't feel short until I try to loop out on manualing and I can't, but it handles tight, the rear suspension is really nice, I went pretty low key down lynx and still I managed to be only 3 secs off my best time (and 80% healthy) - I can't wait to try it on some super steep trails
