Pinkbike Poll: Do You Use Your Climb Switch?
Where I am (pnw) it definitely makes more sense to climb with it open than not unless you are on a fire road. I can ride the downhills more easily with it closed than the uphills. Bumping off of roots just makes it more likely to spin a rear tire than get traction. Going down it's just rough with maybe a bit more boost on the jumps.

@owl-X: Good to have some options. You work for Fezz but are in the pnw? Or is that just OP? I'm on Vancouver Island (south) and it's a lot of rocks and roots. Both wet. Oh so wet, except for the small bit of time we get moon dust.

@KolaPanda: Worst tire I've ever had on wet roots has to be the Pirelli Scorpion Trail Soft. Assegai is a dream by comparison. I feel like whenever I stray from Maxxis I regret it.

Yeah, seems Assegai has taken over as the front tire for OEM, so people replace it with the same. One of my bikes is Highroller II front and DHF rear. That's an odd combo.

First Ride: The 2024 Rocky Mountain Instinct Gets Updated Geometry & In-Frame Storage
@onawalk: it's still new off the showroom floor vs new off the showroom floor. I definitely agree the Druid at release was crazy expensive. So was the V1 Dread (9K for the XT build iirc). But if I walk into my LBB today and see this RM sitting beside a 2023 Sight C1 for under 7K or a Ripley SLX (with Fox Factory) for just over 7K, SC Bronson GX for $6.5K I doubt I'm choosing the RM. If anything I'm choosing the prev season RM. There's nothign about this bike that screams, "Take my CC!"

First Ride: The 2024 Rocky Mountain Instinct Gets Updated Geometry & In-Frame Storage
@onawalk: yep, that's why I didn't immediately swap 1 to 2. But when deciding on what bike to buy today I'm looking at what's on the market today, not just brand new designs. Maybe the Fluid carbon is a fairer comparison (as the non-high-pivot optic is end-of-life). Last year's Optic tho.. super nice bike, it's on sale...

@Keegansamonster: The main druid page doesn't show a sale price.. shop does. That's the confusion.

@Keegansamonster: Sale price? That's current msrp of a v2 not a temp sale. Msrp vs msrp. RM has always been a poor value proposition at msrp. Look at the new Optic builds compared to this. Norco is better value and I'd argue Norco has a better track record (*cough cough* alloy frame recall).
