New to the sport and ready to buy first full suspension EMTB. “reliving” my first rides in Bentonville recently, I believe autoshift/freeshift would have been very helpful to me and increased my fun factor while decreasing tension. It was a lot of sensory input to appreciate and try to account for efficiently. My intuition tells me these functions might be more important for my situation than distinguishing between recently model motors. I would web most grateful for guidance. I like the YT Decoy MX Core 4 I was riding but the guys in area said a 29er might be better for me. T from what I can tell the Core 4 does not have AS/FS and the Core 5 will only be MX and have FS. I’m nature in life almost always chooses function over flash and higher quality and good value over “cheaper”. I would buy the bike today if could decide. I am not handy so will depend on good mechanics to service and repair bike regularly and will stay ahead of schedule for such. Sincerely thanks!!! Very serious inquiry. Over-worked at high pressure care and under-“funned”. Got hooked on sport in 3 days. Likely will return to NWA for a few days this coming week.
