I just stumbled upon your channel and I love the informative, concise format. Quick to the point, nice riding footage and sensible recommendations - great job!
Agreed. I’d much rather have live valve that manual lockouts. I wonder if weight is a concern? That said this was the second lightest bike in the test.
I also have an old man’s back from years of being hunched over a PC and on the bike. Which bike gives you the most comfort for riding out of your fleet of bikes ?
One minor comment - I've noticed that sometimes "aggressive" can mean steep angles & XC focused and sometimes the same word can mean more downhill oriented. You're definitely not the only bike media person who uses this word for these two opposite ends of the spectrum. Just wanted to call it out as a point of feedback in case helpful for future videos. Thanks for the great content
