Also, once you get to higher end bikes, most will meet our capabilities and needs. At some point it comes down to fit, feel, and maybe dealer support.
Thx. At some point riding a mt. bike got overly complicated. You had to pick from Cross-Country (XC), Trail, All Mountain, Enduro, Freeride and Downhill and likely a few others, not including all the BMX stuff. I have a Specialized Chisel. It's a hardtail and that's all I know or care to know. I ride it cross country on trails. Thus an "XCM" was beyond my ability to offer advise.
