I remember running 32/32 on 8 speed 1X, in the mountains. I stood up a lot, and I pushed a lot... Another example of how great modern bikes have become. I'm only 35, and the change in my mountain bike career has been incredible.
I was thinking about a Phantom pretty hard when I bought my Knolly... I liked the shorter rear end on the Knolly, which is sort of not fashionable, but I'm currently ripping mostly tight, flatter trails. No regrets, it handles fantastically on our crappy flat corners and has plenty of composure when I find something frightening to through it into.
