Based on my experience with Santa Cruz and other bikes of theirs, I've decided to bump up to the Nomad. I do mostly XC and AM riding, but I live now at the base of several ski mtns (bike lifts) so I wanted the option to go burly..My question is should I fork over for something new (like 2010 or newer) or spend much less and get a Nomad from 2008? I'm seeing so many of both and I simply don't know enough about their designs to decide. I understand '08 was the last American-made model, but I'm not sure if that's been much of a difference. I've seen several 08s in great condition, used by people who just never put these tanks to the test. Or I could spend more than 2X that amount for something very recent. Thanks for reading!
