The Conundrum: More Shocks or More Shovels?
Well put. More suspension = more options, fewer obstacles = fewer options.

Review: Last Tarvo - A Sub-30-Pound Enduro Bike
@alexisfire: If by "value", you mean "the highest discount from MSRP of the build components", then I'd agree. However, there are a lot of non-build related value items to consider. For example, SC and Yeti retain value exceptionally well, so resale as a percentage of purchase price is a value-add later on. I also personally think that if you're buying new, the boutique brands are built better (in the sense of the bike shop mechanic being stoked on a "cool brand" and doing their best). Then there's also the fact that if you want a suspension platform that isn't horst or single pivot then you are going to pay a premium on the frame.
Not saying that value doesn't matter; just that "value" means something different to everyone.

Oct 20, 2021Fox 34 Factory Fit4 - 140mm / 120mm - 44 offset
$670 USDComing off an Ibis Ripley. Ridden light, and always taken care of. Recent service done to lowers and air spring. Currently at 140mm, but I also have the 120mm air shaft that I can include or install, if desired. If you happen to be a Utah local, I'm happy to mount it up to your bike for you as well.
All scuffs/scratches pictured. There is a super tiny nick on the back of the left stanchion; it's so small that I can only feel it when trying to catch it with my fingernail. Personally, I'm not worried about it, since I just can't imagine that it would be able to pass debris through the seal.
All offers welcome; motivated seller. Text me at the listed number and let's work something out.
Steerer: tapered, 7 3/16" (with sealed crown race), 7 5/16" to crown
Damper: Fit4
Travel: 140mm / 120mm
Offset: 44mm
Axle: 15 x 110 TA Boost
Finish: Kashima
