Yeah, going to Thredbo for Easter.
Also read that this Saturday, A 6km extension of the Thredbo Valley Track from Bullocks Flat to Thredbo River Picnic area opens.
Link that up with existing TVT + the AM trail for a super long descent almost all the way to Jindy.
The 2016 zero offset dropper post helps overcome this somewhat.
Not something I've picked up on yet but haven't done a great deal of climbing on the bike.
Re the trance v sx, I also had the chance to demo the 2016 Trance Advanced 1 late last year on a trip to Majura Pines & thredbo.

Have just come off a 29er ( Santa Cruz Tallboy v1 ) & onto my first 27.5 wheeled bike ( Anthem advanced sx )
My circumstances have changed a little this year & i won't be racing as much xc as in previous years.
I was going to go the regular Anthem advanced, but changed my mind after a demo...
Ive just recently been prescribed calcium channel blockers from my cardiologist.
Have been on them for about 3 weeks, so I feel my body is just starting to used to them & the initial side effects are starting to go away.
I can sympathize with you & find myself in a very similar situation...
On my cx bike which i commute on quite a bit, I'm using non tubeless road / touring tyres on tubeless rims but at low pressure.

Im on a 2015 Propel. The Advanced Pro 0 with Ultegra DI2.
The only reason I’m riding that is to be legally able to race.
Its a fast bike, but to get the most out of the aero frame, you need to be flexible enough to get down low & take advantage of the aero attributes.
No point in getting a...
have been running Easton EC90 XC circa 2010 for the last few years with zero problems.
very stout wheel set with better lateral stiffness compared to the crest, arch wheel sets I've used.
From what i have read on the internet, Stages have been very good with warranty claims.
I really hope it gets sorted out asap for you Ackland & they replace the whole crank arm with a new one for you.
Also read that a better battery & seal on the battery housing has been made recently. I think...

can't recommend it enough.
Yeah, i was watching it on ebay.
apparently winning bidder backed out, some story about nephew playing on his phone.
great bike btw, would love to buy this.
good luck with the sale

pushys has the 3C exo TR in 29 for $52

The only place they feel down was in damp, wet clay conditions where the knobs couldn't shed the mud.
I currently run the ikon on the rear of both my xc bikes.
