Scott elite 29 vs giant anthem x1 29

[Benjamin]

I've just got the carbon Scott 29 er, same bike as the Ali , just different material. Previous 26 bike had fox shock and fork. It was definately softer and plusher but I find the control with the Scott much better. Maybe it's the bigger wheels, maybe the ride position but just works really well. And my gosh it's fast. Have been getting numb hands though, maybe needs to tweak the fork setup. Loving it so far.
