I got to ride the Intense Primer yesterday.

 

My first 2 runs weren't great. The front end kept diving and the trail we rode was quite steep in places and you need a little support up front. A few pumps of the shock pump transformed the bike.

 

WHAT A BIKE!!!!! It's incredible that a 29er can feel so nimble and responsive on the trail. I found myself riding smoother and faster on the trail than I ever have before. When pointing back up the hill it transformed into a light efficient trail bike.

 

The component spec on the bike is amazing and the XT brakes in particular were incredible.

 

It took long enough but my all time favorite bike is no longer the S Works Enduro. The Intense Primer is the new daddy.

 

I'm hoping to give it a burn on some familiar trails this weekend. I'll run my strava and see how many little cups I get.

Awesome, I am so jealous. Where do I sign up for a test ride?

There are test bikes at the Hanger as far as I know.

 

Humm.... might need to swing past there this week. Was looking at a carbon Tracer 2 the other day that someone was selling and trying my best to ignore it. :)

The idea makes a lot of sense and the bike probably performs great

 

BUT as soon as you have to go through 36 bearings to look for A creak / or replace 36 bearings you may want A conventional bike 

 

 

36 is probably way more than there actually is I count 14 + 2 sets of headset bearings
