I have an Enduro 29 - I agree that it feels like a big trailbike, but I think describing it that way doesn't give it enough credit. When I was looking to purchase a bike approx. 2 years ago the 3 bikes I test rode were the E29, a Bronson, and a Nomad. I felt like the E29 climbed better than the Bronson and descended better than the Nomad. I felt like the bike really had such a broad spectrum - anything from a burly XC bike to almost a full-on DH bike. I take it that the Wreckoning gives up some on the climbing/XC side and has a little bit more on the DH side (vs. the E29)? I'd be curious to give it a try. I still have a DH bike (mainly cuz I dont want to abuse the E29 in the bike park) but perhaps the Wreckoning could allow me to get rid of my DH bike for good?
I thought the E29 was doing pretty good as well until I rode a bike that did some of those things much better. If I lived anywhere else its trailbikeyness would be an asset but there's enough steep danger here that a more descent-oriented bike is worth having. The funny thing is that the Wreckoning is just as good a climber as the E29. It's just not as good of an all-around trailbike.
I would think having a DH bike for the park and an E29 for your all-around bike is a pretty good split.
There's nothing better than an Orangina after cheating death with Digger.
