I got me a Precept, not the DL, which has even cheaper brakes and suspension.
Glad I sized up to XL (I'm 6'2). This is a great XC bike for me, I have a big
bike, but this one will see the big rides.
I love the geo of this bike, the Process geo in my opinion is way too long, I
hate it. The fact that the reach is so much shorter on this bike is the main
reason I got it over the process. I have put time on all sizes and models of
process that could fit me, and never found one that was comfortable enough. I
feel like the seat is just way too far over the back end on the process
lineup, especially on the 153.
I love that this bike is fun and versatile. I can jump it, climb it, tow a
trailer, it fits me, the suspension works (and bottoms), the tektro brakes
actually work (apparently better than the shimanos), it was cheap, it has a
threaded b.b., it has stealth dropper routing, it rolls fast, it exhibits good
handling traits……. I could go on.
