Please report back on how the cassette holds up. I have an HG driver and am also keen to loose the 600+ gram nx cassette. However I might just get XT linkglide and go for durability.
I love manitou forks. So easy to work on, great engineering, and I think they look awesome. Can you upgrade the mastodon with an IRT? If you like monkeying around with suspension, IRT is really fun to play with. You can make the spring curve linear or bump up the pressure in the IRT and have a lot of support.
Great article. I have a blizzard and having another wheel set to make the bike work in all 4 seasons could be fun. However, it could be an expensive experiment.
