Have gotten my Intense 951 pretty dialed over the years so I'm prob sticking with it a little while longer. Everytime I ride it, I realize there's no need to "upgrade" just yet.

Went up there this weekend for the 1st time this year. 100x better than the muddy mess last year on opening weekend. Had a good time and was beat after just 4hrs of riding. Trails definitely need some work though, to improve flow, reshaping of the tables, and of course expansion with more...
It's true, these days it's basically a bmx style lid or full face, paired with some knee pads. Quite a few of my friends are riding this way now, and we're well past our youthful years lol. Personally I still rock more armor than that every day, whether shuttling or at the bike park. Yeah it's...
While this discussion is interesting to a former business major like myself, and I definitely agree that mountain bikes/components are far too expensive, I've managed to minimize the impact it has on me. I tend to buy used, but even for new stuff, I scour PB, CL, eBay, etc... and avoid the...
