I’ve been riding my Decoy on challenging technical trails recently. Boulder/rock like technical uphill in and down (Cowboy Trails, LV, NV, USA, for instance). I am find that I am getting a lot of bump steer and that the hub engagement is slack. Quick ratchet moves are sloppy. Seem these eThirteen wheels are really stiff/harsh.
Anyone one else have similar experience?
I am thinking about trying a set of DT Swiss M1700s on this bike with 54T ratchet. I have those wheels on my Yeti SB130 and previously on a Levo. Really found them to deliver balanced handling on the trail and handle harsh riding well.
BTW IMO, the Roval AL wheels that come on the 19 Levo are absolute junk. They could not even remotely handle aggressive riding. BUT, the Roval carbon wheels on the S-WORKS see to be stout and well handling.
