didnt realize you had made a thread about this, things:
trail = more squish than xc, because bigger hits and drops and more aggro style
for tires id recommend asking locals/lbs that ride your trails what tires they use
you made good choices, did you get the new m8000?
make sure you get your suspension set up right for
