I have two main bikes a 2008/09 SC Nomad and a 2014 Mach 6. It's amazing to me
how great a bike the Nomad is for an 8yr old ride. I put a dropper on it 8yrs
ago and have never looked back. Honestly if I put a bling parts kit on that
frame I'd go toe to toe with any modern 6″ travel bike on my local trails. Yes
even with that obsolete geo that I shred everything with.
So from that perspective it's like we've been bombarded with nothing important
the last 8yrs. 😉
The two things I'm stoked about currently are fun/playful 29ers and Plus-Minus
2.5″-2.6″ real width tires [sorry Maxxis not 2.5″ labelled 2.35″ wide tires].
Ideally somebody will stick the two together without adding too many "new"
standards so I can finally buy a new bike. 🙂
