I absolutely LOVE my Mavic Fury shoes. I've got them in yellow. I also have the Bontrager MTB RL's and those aren't bad either.

Mavic Furys, I'll have to look those up. Thanks!

Anyone planning on spending some tax return money on a bike? I posted a while back while I was in school wanting to upgrade from my bd.com bike to something more durable now that riding has become more serious for me.

...still not sure what I want to get, though. I was thinking AM but the trails around me now are more XC. Regardless I want to go FS. Anyone want to suggest an FS bike that's fairly decent at climbing? I find that to be my biggest concern. The trail I ride now has a lot of elevation changes and due to the nature of the trail I cannot really carry a lot of momentum onto the up-slopes. As far as budget is concerned, I'd like to get a bike that's going to last so I've got deeper pockets this time around.

Look into Giant Trance or Reign / Specialized Camber, Stumpjumper, Enduro / Trek Fuel EX or Remedy.

Just from the 3 most common brands. From there you can research on Intense or Santa Cruz brands. More expensive but worth the money.

What ever way you go, get a 29er.

I personally love my Trek Superfly 100.

Yup depending on what your style of riding is 29ers are the way to go. I love my trance 29er.

They are going to start pushing the 27.5 hard. I'm curious to see how it stacks up

Yup the 650's (27.5's) look pretty cool as well. Will be interesting

***pgFA*** · 02-16-2013, 09:54 AM

Havent been to a shop in a while but they have a 27.5 now? Has it been out for a while or is it a new thing?
