That does look entertaining. I wish I had awesome big air skillz and no fear again.

So do I!
That bike would be perfect for my main ride location back home, Glenrock lagoon. Would just need to fine tune the gearing.

I wish Canyon did a hardcore hardtail. Something around 66 HT and 75 ST with a 130mm fork would be good.

I’ve now watched both the Spur & SB115 vids - nothing said in either that would make me not want to own one.
Can’t help but think the Ripmo strikes an unreal balance or climbing & descending too.
Pick the bike you most like looking at. Can’t really go wrong any more...

So neither of them mentioned the words 'down' or 'country'?

I care about how the bike looks & rides. Don’t really care about how they categorise it.

Unless that category is “bad”.

If my purchase falls through then this is on my radar! Only downside are the shit brake levers and the need to install rim tape and valve.New merida.

Even the 2nd tier Big Trail is well specced for the money.
Sizings seem a little off-kilter with modern geo, fairly short reach (475mm on XL) given the steepish and slackish treatments?

Doesn't that depend on whether they measured when at like 20-25% sag?

The ultra-modern hardtails (like that new Kona ESD) are really very limited in scope on what they suit (very steep/very fast descents). The Merida looks like a solid all-round geo, and as @HamboCairns suggests, if measured unsagged would actually still be quite long at sag.
