Finally some sane thought on bleeding brakes vs the guys who think a bleed is needed every damn day for some reason.

Added a comment about product review Tested: Crankbrothers Highline Dropper Post
I've had my highline for the past couple of months, admittedly I don't have a ton of seat time on the bike I installed it on. It's been great, only complaint is the return speed is a little slow. If the post is on your primary/only bike I'm sure it's not as noticeable but switching between my bikes the slower speed is def. noticeable (when compared to the transfer on my other bike). With the oneup dropper out now, this post is going to have much stiffer competition at this pricepoint.

This is an application of plus size I can get behind. It makes sense for hardtails, because you're not going to be charging rock gardens fast enough for the balloon tires to really mess with your suspension. You gain traction and compliance with a tiny bit of a weight penalty, and it...more

Have to admit, this bike was alot of fun to ride. Def. wanted to hate it, but on the mellow(er) local trails I'm used to it was a blast(like the Spominator mentions above).

Yes it is a budget, but there are certainly places you can save major $$$, like:
-Cheaper cockpit(mentioned below)
-Cheaper brakes (Code R's run like $300 for a pair retail)
-Azonic Outlaws $350ish
-X7 drivetrain $70 derailleur/shifter $30
blah blah, bike looks great tho!

Added a comment about product review Tested: Teva Pivot Shoes - A Love/Hate Experience
How do these stack up to the minaars? I was considering the pivots, but the lack of ankle protection(i have stupid big ankles), and the deal i got on my 5.10 ravens kinda made the decision for me, but maybe by the time these wear out(hopefully last longer than my shimano am45s 
) the pivots will be a viable option..

Not gonna lie, this made me take a look at TRP brakes after listening to this. Also after my shimanos reach adjustment went on random mode during my ride today.
