Any mountain bikers out there 2.0

The Yeti Sb140 has been an awesome upgrade from my 130.
I think you need to evaluate what you will be doing with the bike and from there choose the appropriate model. Jbell is seriously super human regardless of what he says so keep that in mind…..much respect.
I found a nearly flawless used 2024 XO build with carbon wheels….they are out there. Nearly 4K off retail. Not hating the AXS transmission now that I’ve got a few hundred miles on her. Pedal Harder!View attachment 8723047

Trailcraft has great bikes for the kids. Resell value on those is excellent also. We had a few of them.

100%, you need to find the bike that fits your application.

I needed to do that. I got my 2020 Mach 4SL thinking more of my glory days in XC racing and not what I should be riding now. No plans on racing just getting out and enjoying trails. Things on the trails have become more about features than just XC riding. I should have gotten a trail bike instead. Since my bike cost a shit ton of money I'm keeping it. When my son goes to the Army I borrow his YT Izzo, lol.

Thats a good option to have!
Which bike will you grab more often than not?
