Next season is new bike season! I'm not entirely sure I'll even pay the "Yeti tax". However, it has been a while so I'm leaning toward spending too much. I like what I've seen/read of the SB130LR (lunch ride) AND SB150. 70% of my rides are "trail/XC" (chimney rock, LM, 6-mi., Nassau) the other 30% is a bit "more"; Allamuchy, Blue Mountain Reservation, Sourlands, weekend trips and a couple enduro races per season. For reference I currently ride a 26" Blur LTC w/160MM Fox 36 and Float X2 shock. nice and squishy, but its beaten up and a bit outdated. my style and preference is definitely on the DH side, but I do like to push myself on climbs.
Anyone have experience on both bikes? In summary I'm leaning toward the SB130LR as a little burlier than the SB130, but not so big and cumbersome(?) as the 150. Would love to hear from anyone who has ridden one or both around here.
