I might find myself with a little extra cash, and these bikes have a decent markdown (although I think they were overpriced to begin with for the spec).
I like to ride a bit of single track, and the AXS mullet will work on the absolutely brutal climbs here. 2x would be nicer on the road, but I ride in a group maybe twice a year, so no big deal. Plus I’m a mountain biker at heart. And while I’d like more generous tire clearance, I’m sure it will be a step on on the old Boone which doesn’t have much. I’ll also add Cushcore out back.
