Kamui, eh? What guided your choice of this particular model over, say, the Samurai or Aperature - - weight I presume?
Not at all! Lived in OR until 2000. Born in Omak, WA. Raised in the Eugene, OR area. Mom and older brother are in Spokane. Next time I'm out there, I'll try and hook up for some ride time.
Pretty much, with a little geometry. This is my XC bike - wanted to keep it lighter and more nimble. I figure if it's made for Vancouver area XC riding, it ought to be more than capable for my day to day riding. The Trance-X is the middle bike, and the Reign-X/Totem is the big stupid.
