Pinkbike Podcast Episode 59: Value Bike Field Trip Surprises & Spoilers
Question for the next podcast:
Given that you are critical of the brakes on these bikes, what would you say is the best budget/cheap expensive brake set? Like that actually works?

Re: inexpensive brakes that work.
Isn’t this why Deore brakes are a thing?

Field Trip: BMC's $1,599 Two Stroke is Perfect for Your First XC Race
@BenTheSwabian:
$2099 US for the Trek vs $1599 US for the BMC. It’s in a whole other price bracket here.

How is the Recon fork? I know they used to be sorta entry level but now the Judy is below it, I think? Is the Recon what the Reba used to be?
The Rockshox fork range is very confusing just now.

It’s heavier than bikes that cost 3x as much. Remember the purpose of this field test (and this bike). Carbon fiber wheels and a SID SL fork would be way lighter but would cost more than this whole bike.
