is it the frame or parts spec that keep this bike from being beaten to “shambles”?

Not a straight 1.5 steerer like the old days. Still a 1 1/8 diameter at the top of the taper.

Do you have another wheelset you swap out for trail riding? Don’t quite understand the dropper + dh drivetrain combo. If you’re running a dh drivetrain, you’re not doing any climbing. Might as well ditch the dropper and shave a pound off the bike

I’ve got the same bike. Did you ride the stock deluxe shock before swapping for the X2? Wondering how much of a difference people are feeling.

I agree with you but when the 40mm Totem was in full swing, the Boxxer was still on 32mm.

Sweet edit, but when are the redbull style canned guitar rock soundtracks going to die? They are ruining at least 50% of online bike videos these days.
There is so much good music out there, please someone make these crap soundtracks go away!

Ended up pulling the trigger and got myself the same bike. I’m also on an XL and may get curious about running a coil shock as well - do you mind sharing your weight and resulting estimated sag with the 525lb spring?
