Would have loved a squishy bike like a pony rustler, but a little too spendy for me right now. Just took it for a quick ride on the trails. So far, so good. I like the big tires. I'll have to put my own pedals and grips on it and then set up the tires tubeless at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually think that a plus tire on a hardtail makes a lot of sense. If you are not into racing XC and don't have the budget for a full susser than a plus hardtail fits the bill nicely. Sweet ride, enjoy! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the traction of a bigger tire. Having a bike with a derailleur is nice too. Makes my knees happy. I think it will work well for some bikepacking. The trails here are just starting to open. We still have quite a bit of snow in the mountains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dinneR ★ Posted May 29, 2017 Author Share #22 Posted May 29, 2017 Dragged my sorry ass to the top only to find mud and snow. Nice view of the valley though. Maybe next week I'll be able to get over the top. The descent is pretty amazing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
