Assuming this bike rides similar to the patrol. How would you compare your
reign advanced (maestro) to the giddy up on the patrol/suppressor? Ive got an
alu reign now and really like but am in the midst of selling it to jump onto a
patrol. Still unsure of the decision as I don't have to much ride time on the
patrol. In my test session in Squamish, I liked the firming feeling of the
suspension allowing you to get aggressive especially in corners. After a back
to back run with my reign and a Medium and Large patrol (Im 5'10) I couldn't
help but notice how much more plush the rear end was on the reign though,
effortlessly cushioning the rocks and roots while their was much more pedal
feedback and stiffer feeling in the rear on the patrol. Didn't have any time
to actually tune the shock on the patrol so Im not sure if Ill be able to find
the happy medium or if I should just stick to my reign!
