I'm keen. Being open-minded is key in this vocation, so thanks for the reminder not to make my mind up without first-hand experience.
The counterpoint that comes to mind is that I used to feel that way about eMTBs like the Altitude and Sight VLT, but after perhaps 100 rides on these beasts I feel like I've learned to tame them. In fact, even the jankiest trails have started to come together really well, at speed. It's entirely possible I'll agree with your assessment however and I look forward to setting aside my preconceptions and starting from scratch. And now that's what I'm after next!
