😁 I just sent that video to two buddies yesterday who are both newly encumbered with infants. Lol.
And after shoving the G26 into bike shorts for the drive home:

Shred some gnar on our local ancient lake bonneville shoreline trail today. Finally upgraded the old 2002 Rockhopper for a new Rossignol R-duro. Modern Plus size tubeless tires have amazing traction! Dropper post is a big improvement as well. Now I just need to regain enough stamina to take advantage of all this modern traction.
I followed these instructions to buy a bike:

Gorgeous view man.
Now, someone buy my Top Fuel 8 so I can get a Fuel EX 8 - make ya a deal!
New bike day this week. I've been on a waiting list for the matte black Ripmo frame, but they've been backordered for a number of months in my size. The blue color became available so I jumped on it. I'm pretty excited to get to vet a longer travel 29er for my needs.
I’m only 6’2” but generally opt for the smaller more nimble frame size for me (large in this case) and use riser bars and spacers to get stack numbers where I need them. But yeah, I prefer a more upright position than some, with the saddle and the bars at about the same height.
First few rides in, she certainly seems to be a smasher. At least compared to my Ripley. More interestingly though, the bike retains a lot of playfulness and poppy-ness, despite being 160/145.
