id rather not derail the dumb bike problems thread....
or the tech rumors threads....
or another ebike release announcement....
I know that I care when new bikes id like to ride and potentially buy don't have geo that would work for me. im not saying just long stays, or a certain reach.
I can see the use case scenario differences and consider a bike for "play" or "jib" or "plow" or "all mountain in the rockies" vs. "enduro race" or even "Washington forests in October specifically"
But after seeing comments on new bike releases for decades now, it seems like many potential buyers, myself included, get bummed or stoked for random aspects of the design decisions. And it has also become clear that we are all (obviously) looking for different things in our NEW BIKES, relative to our lives, our riding styles, our current jacked up old bikes and such....
What gets you stoked or bummed on these new bikes geo?
Why do you care so much, or what are you looking for?
WHY?
personally, for me, its always been fit, but as I've gotten older, its become more about fit combined with terrain of choice, which has changed so much going from the pacNW to high rockies. either way, I care about new bikes and want a True XXL option in most considerations for full fat ebike or ultralight downcountry release. plus im still waiting for the release that moves me off of my current Spire...
and I kinda expect it to be the MT 6bar yeti at this point....
should trousers always come in the same length and only with different widths at the waist?
You trying to trigger me???? Hahaha!!!
