Used to race, but now I coach XC. Found a new love in Enduro.

Field Test: 2021 Norco Shore - The Freeride Tank
@mikekazimer: I’m just joshing. I’m actually really hyped about this bike. But right now I’m can’t wait for the range to get out of embargo. 29ers baby.

Oh no the 180mm travel bike is not very well rounded. It should be able to climb like an xc bike with its specs.

Review: 2021 Specialized Stumpjumper EVO - More Travel & More Adjustability
@Mondbiker: I’ve found better reliability with Specialized they have a lifetime warranty on their frames and are really easy to work with. I don’t much care for magical carbon from the top of a volcano that has unicorn piss on it and has been crafted by a leprechaun for six months. That ends up snapping because they didn’t put enough carbon in the down tube then when you try to warranty it they say tough luck we only made 50 bikes.

Review: 2021 Specialized Stumpjumper EVO - More Travel & More Adjustability
@Mondbiker: Sure they make nice hand crafted carbon, but they don’t do the field/pro testing that specialized puts their bikes through. Most companies don’t have the resources to go as deep as specialized does.

People hate on Specialized but in what world does smaller development teams mean you get better bike. Yes Specialized can be slow to the game, but when it comes to frame manufacturing and carbon/alloy processing they are almost un matched. I look at bikes like the Norco sight which have great numbers but the technology is the actual material of the frame is not as good. In the end you can’t really go wrong with any bike.
