The truth.

 

Pygas, barring  the Stage and Stage MAX, are old hat. They really shouldn't be fetching the premiums they do, but are simply because of the fanboidom.

If you buy a trance you need to buy one that has a pike or fox 34, you have to replace the rear shock and you have to do a through axle conversion which might require new wheels. So just be careful. A trance with no upgrades is rubbish

 

Id go longer travel 29er if i were you. Something with 140mm travel in front. Its the best kind of alround bike. 27.5 is more playful but its not the best alrounder. If had alot of bikes this year. Trance, reign, remedy 9,tallboy ltc, yeti sb95c, Pyga pascoe, pyga 120, specialized stumpy, spez enduro, spec epic, etc. Best 2 allrounders was the LTC (current) and then the spez Enduro

need to buy one that has a pike or fox 34 - no you don't

you have to replace the rear shock - no you don't

through axle conversion which might require new wheels - good idea

 

I have stock standard 2015 Trance (beside the new wheels) and it eats any trail in the WC for breakfast. Sure I might get a better ride with those upgrades, but there's nothing that bike can't do with it's standard components.

Oh I totally agree.  Just mocking what the obvious reaction of 90% of the Hub is going to be.

 

Still wouldn't mind a Stage (not the Max, my Enduro wouldn't stand for that).
