Well it seems it will get to my local distribution within a month or two. I will keep you posted how it is ;)

tell me more ;)

Hey guys! I'm thinking about buying Marin Alpine Trail E2, since it kinda seems like a bang for the buck. Even though 27,5 is fine for me, the 2,8 (?!) width of the tyre is 100% overkill for my local trails. Since my current analog bike is 29 both ends, which I really like, I was thinking...

ME7 it is then! Thank y'all!

Hey guys! I'm looking for a new set of "enduro" shoes. Currently I use Shimano SH-AM503 which are super comfy but the "flat" sole is sometime useless in woods / on trails where I need to push bike a bit through roots, clay or mud. Do you have any recommendation for nice set of...

I reached out to my local distribution as i'm really keen on getting one (if the price is right) but for now they have no info about the pricing or ETA... :/

Been thinking about same model. Are you happy with it? Any problems?

@Rob Rides EMTB since you've ridden both (I know, I know CF for sure feels different than AL) what would you suggest?

Damn, who hurt Rockrider? EP801, Ulitmate both ends, this one looks not half bad for probably around 6k eur. I wonder about the geo tho.

So, Propain Ekano 2 AL vs. Canyon Strive:ON? Which one would you choose and why? Not only in terms of how they ride but also maintenance, service and warranty. It is my current dilemma for Q1 2024 purchase I have planned and budgeted. Any opinions / reviews will be much appreciated. PS...

I'm sure we've all seen some comments of people stating that Shimano is unreliable motor without any potential service options, but is that really true? Does anyone really have some issues with it on a longer term , and is it true it cannot be serviced? I'm asking real owners not internet specs...

Have anyone heard any rumours about SL in alloy? I'm confident it will happen, same as with Trek Fuel EXe, but have not heard anything about it. Anyone, anything? ;)

After quite some thought I limited my choices to these 4, as they are available in similar price range and specs. Question that stays is which one to choose :D Focus JAM² 6.9 Bosch CX Gen. 4 Fox 36 Factory Shimano XT Commencal Meta Power SX (2022) Shimano EP8 Fox 38 Performance Shimano SLX...

Yeah, I think you are 100% right, I just need to test some bikes. There is no other way to do it. I'll have to reach out to my LBS and just rider some.
