Me, still sleepy, walking around in my robe with a coffee in hand, receiving a notification from pinkbike: "Oho! What's this?! Another bike review article?!" Immediately I dart to the cabinet where I keep my pitchfork and torches, yelling "Honey, get my notes from teh bedside table!! Yes, for TODAY is the day the bike industry will finally know my wrath!!! All my friends agree it is I who must deliver SWIFT JUSTICE to the bike company overlords!! Oh, the explosive mix of righteous indignation and furious keystroking I will drop on their corporate doorstep via pinkbike comments will not soon be forgotten!!! Oh, yes. I expect the management team will need to do much soul-searching after this one. To assuage their guilt, they will have no choice but to make only a single, ~$4000 model with alloy frame, GX drivetrain, and pike fork!!!! That is all I, a simple man with simple needs, asks after all." wife, in the corner, on the phone to sister, whispering: "they already have it. I've shown him a dozen times but he just won't stop. I wish he would stop."

I thought the point of riding in your late 40's is so you could watch your teenage son handle trails in his first 3 months of riding that took me 10 years - skidding down the mountainside , dealing with bad geometry - to master.

expensive, yeah. But I'd buy this f*cker on looks alone. drop dead stunner

@Timenator: same!

Curious how to mullet this without buying a new fork. Pivot used to - and maybe still does - have a spacer for in between the fork crown and steerer tube to go from 29er to 27.5+. Why not do the same here?

lol who gives a shit! shoulda called it whoa-zone!

@spaceofades: what? how is that?
