Thanks! Build is mostly stock '13 Enduro (they didn't have Comp versions last year) with some help from my kind folks at Renthal and Maxxis. I really struggled in my choice between the 66 and the 95 but ended up going with what I felt would feel more akin to my 303R DH.

You'll love your 95 I'm sure. Don't think you'll be giving up that much weight-wise - - frame weighs a pound more and wheels and small bits may account for a bit, but you'll make up for it when you get 'er up to cruising speed .


Biggest surprise to date has been the 'budget' Mavic Crossride wheels. I worried about those spindly-looking things (only 24-spoke 2-cross?) when I got the bike; but after almost a year of plowing rock gardens, landing whippy jumps and runs down a DH course, they're still as tight and true as new. I'm impressed.
