Much better for when you're out there, or hiring through snow. I have ATACs too.

hiking.

Is there a Vancouver in Taiwan?! I had no idea!!

Nothing sums up my life's achievements like my stuffed corpse, suplexing a cougar.

24.5lb Yeti BT

it looks like a bicycle but is actually a Goat. i'm absolutely certain that this bike has opened up new climbing lines that i had previously considered impossible.

So far it's the only one that's dirty…I WIN

24.12lbs
2012 Giant XTC 29er Zero w/ plenty of upgrages
FSA Gravity Carbon DH Flat Bar (740mm)
FSA OS-150 Stem 90mm
Chris Kings w/ DB spokes laced to Stans Crest
Schwalbe Nobby Nic 2.25 Front, Racing Ralph 2.25 Rear
Straitline Seat Collar
SDG I-Beam Post/Duster Saddle
Magura Marta SL Brakes w/ Storm SL rotors (180/160)

Planned upgrages:

Either a Carbon XTC frame or SC TallBoy Carbon frame swap

I also am an industry slave.

All I will say is I will gladly ride this bike in places I would not dream of taking a 4" 26" hardtail.

Nice bike sir.

Didn't you know those brakes are discontinued? You should sell me those brakes for cheap.

Just Ride.

I had a similar one. I was running ten speed XTR, 11-36 and 26 - 38 front. And yeah I also thought it was more capable on trails than a 4X4 26er xc bike. I replaced the frame with a Highball. 22.5 pounds. Love it.

Debate? Bikes are made for riding not pushing.
