I broke 2 pairs and the warranty guy said "last lot unless you lose weight" im 95kg, 6ft, fit and healthy. like what the f%$k. refunded as a scam through my CC buyer protection. They also Block and delete people who have broken them on instagram - few other instances of the warranty guy just abusing customers. I wouldnt trust those A-holes, ever.

Whatever bike fits you and your riding style the best. This is subjective and has a lot to do with biomechanics and the area you're riding in vs the area the bike was designed for.

the other site seems to have more and more saying the new slash is the one posted awhile back and not being far away, Some were onboard for it to be the remedy - Id still like to believe its a remedy as the 36 at what looked to be 160mm travel.

(you are also missing stack being a big issue, Long reach is compensated now by short stack, hence alot running high bars on big reach bikes) Chainstays and mullet I can agree with, We are seeing a relaxing on reach especially on Large's because over 488ish is quite long and...

Losing the front becomes a self fulfiling prophesy. You wash the front, so lose confidence, so start hanging off the back, so lose grip......so wash the front.

I dont measure sag in the fork ever, i start with recommended and adjust from there, as soon as you turn a dial the sag changes in theory. I do like to know how much travel i use though for giggles i call it the "yeeehaaaa bar"

The new boxxer was out in the wild for ~1.5 years maybe more (iirc) before they finally released it. New Vivid was only spotted this season. I wouldn't hold my breath. Especially with whole industry slowing down and lots of shops and companies overstocked.
