It is curious... If you sell an enduro bike with exposed external cables..how many will avoid it because of it? I guess a very very small percentage.. if you sell an enduro bike with internal routing, how many will avoid it? Almost none if its done properly....I prefer external but I will take it .. if you sell and enduro bike with the headset crap routing..how many will avoid it? MANY..Many is about percentage of people around buying enduro bikes..which is NOT the mainstream market for sure..I guess ...200 or even less bikes sold or lost, is something a small brand will care about.. I refrain the accent ENDURO bike since its a kind of mtb that is constantly prone to breakage and maintenance.... I am sorry to say that I will not ever buy a bike from people who don't listen to their potential user's desires. . A full suspension bike is a big expense..just do it right as people want it otherwise is just a stubborn attitude. That is why I just bought an Orbea Occam and not the new Commencal TEMPO.. I waited for it to come out,..saw the headset crap. forgot about it. Orbea took my money. Simple.

@tudorm: true But at least a road bike will not be destroyed in a matter of few months. Mtbs and road bikes are both overpriced if you want the fashion brand on it. But at least you can preserve the health of a road bike in the years. With a mtb it is obvious it will be hard used in a few time. There is no sense that your fear of falling is about the bike more than for yourself:)))

How can you spend this much money on an piece of kit that will be used offload daily , that will fall and scratched almost everywhere. Is nonsense. Not my sport but I can understand high prices on road bikes where the only parts that will suffer will be tires, which are the only parts that will touch the pavement . Everyone burns his money in the way he prefers...but really is total useless to spend more than 3000 dollars on a bike and have the same exact amount of fun if not more.. because you will not think about ruining it on every obstacle you get on the trail.

What bike and wheel size is Wade using in the video? thanks

@GeoMurph5: me too..Just built a 2022 medium Wideangle.. It is a nice sensation going back to smaller wheels..I had lost a bit of fun with my previous 29er HT...Even It had shot CS and nice geo but smaller wheels do a big part..Me too not planning going back to 29ers
