No it's not, it's all about the person on the bike, the only difference I've noticed with my current bike is that on the ragged edge I have more control, not much mind you but still more than I've had before.

 

-- And we were talking about the bar width not the bar ends.

On my GF Big Sur, I did yeah. Like I said though the biggest difference now is the climbing is better on the full sus and I have a little more control.

Okay... you're da man... but then again, those green & gold clothes hanging in your cupboard proved that a while ago.

I didn't get any green & gold clothing! I had no recognition from the local mtb authorities because 24 hour racing isn't actually a sport.

Nothing quite like this, close shaves with trees, drop-offs, roots etc.

 

Can't get enough of the rush of blasting down tight, technical ST!

 

LOVE IT!

Rode a bit on the mountain yesterday, cut a tree a bit close on the left and had to move my butt outta the way as the tree hit my saddle, man it was beautiful!
