The only example from pre 2005 that I could use to disagree with anything in this article was my 2001 GT i-drive. 3 inches of plush on an intended XC bike that I hammered trying to keep up with my friends on Stinkys, VPS shores etc. The thing never gave up. What finally did it in was the seat tube collar parting at the weld.
