well it's no XC bike that's for sure

And the fastest riders were all on 5" - 6" travel bikes

The bike in the photo above appears to be a Specialized SX--short travel and burly, baby! Not that I don't agree w/ the author.

100% Concur. Downslope XC racing format needs to be eliminated ASAP in the US. All-mountain/Enduro bikes want more thrown at them when blasting down. Races need to adjust to that, such as the one featured here. Put the emphasis on skill with endurance, rather than endurance with a little skill. Case in point Keene with the decisive win. That guy is an endurance animal, but first known as a DH ripper. Enduro needs to entice DH oriented people to get more fit while still offering a format that rewards aggressive descending.
