Good comment. It resonates with me. We've been trained well by the advertisers.
I found the article interesting because it describes my (5 year old) bike pretty well. 130/140, 29er, 34lbs, 'slack' for the time at 67.5deg. But I find myself wondering if the new slacker/bigger/lower stuff is that much better? I'm hoping demo days come back soon so I can scratch that itch without spending a fortune.
