final review is in the can so i think i can answer this: though its not a
gravity-specific bike, i definitely think the expert evo 29 could handle
occasional shuttle duties on the north shore. i had no problems with the
wheels in terms of stiffness or durability, and they're the same ones that
come on the enduro 29, so that's not really a concern. steep and/or fast tech
are where the bike shines. the increased travel on the enduro 29 would
probably help for deep chunder, but the expert evo 29 is incredibly balanced,
an absolute beast for trail riding of all sorts, and isn't going to hold you
back on technical terrain
