Pinkbike Poll: Do You Use Your Climb Switch?
For me it depends on how it works. I use the climb switch all the time on my Super Deluxe Coil because it firms up the shock nicely and makes the bike sportier while still responding to impacts. The climb switch on my Super Deluxe Air is a near total “lock out”, and I don’t use it for anything other than pavement.

Henry's Waffle House: All-Mountain Bikes Are Back, and They're More Pointless Than Ever
I have to agree. I had a 150mm bike for a while and I found it wasn't any lighter and didn't climb any better than a full enduro bike, but the enduro bike was noticeably more stable and forgiving on high speed descents. It used to be that an all-mountain bike would have lower handlebars, and hence have a better climbing position, but now things like steeper seat angle and longer chainstays have eliminated that advantage and enduro bikes climb just as well. I think there is a terrain type where All Mountain excels though, and that's terrain that's relatively rough, but rolling without big climbs and descents. This is where an enduro bike can feel like "too much" because you don't have the extended downhills to get up to speed, but you also want suspension to soak up the bumps.

Race Report: New Course Records for Solo Women by Momber & Duo Men's by Morton/Lideen - 24 Hours In The Old Pueblo
I don't think I've seen any duos attempt 12 hour shifts. Are they the first competitive duo to try that?

I am a Denver area rider and owned a Wreckoning. I moved onto GG when Revved came out and intend to ride my Trail Pistol and Gnarvana until they break. RIP.
