Additional Info

Trek managed to hit the nail on the head for versatility for my particular riding situation. My local trails are generally on the XC side of the equation with a few little jumps/drops rolled into them, so I need something that can be fun for that, but the stuff I really like to ride is more rowdy enduro and DH stuff that requires some driving. This bike rolled both styles into one bike fairly well - I can run it with the EX link, 150mm air shaft, and my light weight trail wheelset for my local trails and make sure my shock is around 25-26% sag and and with just shy of an hour of work, I can swap the cassette to the other wheelset, throw in a 170mm airshaft, and swap the links and adjust my shock to some preset settings I've already got and now it's setup for 160/170 with more appropriate Minion DHF/DHR EXO+ tires for park days and riding some more demanding trails. 

Happy with how the build came out.
