I had the same experience running cushcore when I lived in Arizona. Great ride characteristics and rim protection was a bonus. I moved to southern Oregon last year and removed the CC after a few weeks. The climbs are too steep and the trails are so buff... it stopped being worth the weight penalty for me, improved feel aside. I am curious about trying the XC version though.
