My old bike's front fork was busted twice, and the wheel set was going out as well, so I made the decision to get a new-used one. Then magic happened, a listing popped up and it was more bike than I can ever ask for, for a price below my budget. So I grabbed before everyone else(had to muscle my way through) and it is simply fantastic. Coming from an old 2010 26" geometry to this new 27.5, I am way late in the game but I never wanted to chase the spec race. Still, very confidence-inspiring. So I call this the honey-moon period. Gotta take more artsy photos of it before it gets banged up like the old one!
Dual suspension has been the mainstream setup for most kinds of mountain bike for many years. So it's not exclusive to downhill.
