    Am I crazy for not wearing a helmet.

    So in summary. If you have good hair don't spoil it with a helmet. If you look like Johnny. Full face helmet even when your doing a milk and fags run.

    All Mountain Tyres

    Seconded. Call it the minion trail. A little slower rolling on the rear than an xc tire or semi slick but great cornering, climbing, braking grip. Fantastic match for a dhf front on a trail/enduro bike.

    First Enduro

    I'd buy the Norco purely for brand image. Specialized are specialized and canyon are for nerds. Norco is the least pretentious and gets fantastic reviews.
