  • This hardtail dream mountain bike is getting ridiculous now! I decided after reading lots of comments to buy the best possible mtb groupset, the SRAM eagle AXS electronic gears. They blow my mind. I can't beleive that mountain bike products can be this expensive, but they are definitely cool. I also got loads more cool new parts for this bike! Check out the san quentin upgrades and let me know what you think of the mods, or any future changes to this bike?!

    4 riders (or more, or less) out in the wild, everyone has someone else’s wireless shifter (add in wireless dropper posts for comedy value), you have to work as a team to get around the trails.

    Derailleur is originally an English word "derailer". It's the mechanism that allows trains to swap tracks by "derailing" them. The French stole it and then cycling became popular in France. Bottom line, we're all saying it wrong and a Frenchman is the last person to correct anyone's pronunciation of derailer.

    I'm with you 100% on not going to full suspension until you really need it. Case in point, I just got a lightly used Trance 0 and retired my 1993 hard tail that I bought new in 1994. haha. But seriously, a hardtail (or one could argue full rigid) helps you learn import bike handling skills and how to read trails. That SRAM electronic shifting looks really cool, too bad I'm out of cash.

    Now that WILL get your skills up!!
    Front suspension is a luxury as far as I'm concerned!
