First time I've ever posted on vital or any forum for that matter. But I can't resist the temptation. Bought my first bike 2nd hand in 1998 as a student. An Avanti hardtail. Had it for two years then got a good job which enabled an obsession with bikes to be realised. 20 years later and I need a bigger shed. Every bike was purchased 2nd hand. Normally I pulled them all down and rebuilt them with a variety of parts preferred parts on hand. I rode/ride them all, although admittedly some only a couple of times before selling on...

“Refined” still only clears a 2.4 out back, reach is truthfully a size short, seat tube is still 1-2* too slack as well as 1”+ too long, and if they’d dropped a degree off the head angle they would have opened up better doors for shorter offset forks....bike still hits the target but is def no bullseye

I love it.... no problem with using a chairlift to get up Mammoth, but as soon as people want to use e-bikes on e-bike approved trails people lose their goddamned minds. Nothing like people telling other people how they should be able to enjoy their own mountain bike experience on land where it is ok to do so. Way to embrace personal freedom everyone. Well done. Also, when arguing against this point, please try not to use slippery slope fallacies, missing the point fallacies, and false cause fallacies because that's all anti-ebike people seem to use.
