If Moab said this wouldn't think twice, if Whistler said this wouldn't think twice, if Washington State said this probably wouldn't think twice. Bentonville, Arkansas ha that is hysterical.

no doubt the trails there look extremely fun and access to/from town is handy. everyone we've talked to says the place is a blast to ride. capital of the world though? IMO, there's no place that could or should be able to claim such a title. the city and trails look like they have great mass-market appeal, which is good for the sport. like mentioned above (in so many words by studbeefpile), the element of adventure or wilderness, that many consider the essence of mountain biking, is not on par with big mountain destinations. while i'm not a super adventure...

I've never considered Arkansas as a mountain bike destination, but rather as a Smallmouth Bass fishing one. Maybe the trails there have international appeal, but I'm not convinced. Maybe a the vitalmtb crew should go there and review the areas trails?

Our sport is in such a great/weird spot right now. Huge influx of new riders is great. More money coming in is great. More trails are being built, awesome. But at the same these new trail systems are the most BORING thing ever to ride. And people think these trails are the pinnacle of MTB.

Other than some of the obvious, it would be nice to see a bit of text on what the hell we are looking at.

Local guy here was shilling for them... This is an industry rightsizing at it's finest, bikes with this combination of generic and sub par are indicative of the fat that had developed in our industry over the years.

They had some interesting ideas, but the overall package was always somewhat unappealing (for instance, the inability to use an internally-routed dropper post on their original frames). I seem to recall a friend testing one of the earliest models and being unimpressed by its descending performance, too.

No. Same zero sag. The biggest thing I noticed is the bipass through the steer tube.
