I am dreaming of an n+1 bike so I tried my buddy's Davinci Hatchet. The only organized events near me are all gravel grinders. Maybe I will just stick to the bomber and ride in the back of the mullet group . I am generally just trying to expand my knowledge and was surprised by the difference in the comfort of the ride between the two bikes.

I was curious about the shockstop and their seatpost. Or a thudbuster etc. Do they make a significant difference?
