I've been really enjoying it. On long techy descents like this loop, you definitely get a bit beat up. I have a 150mm Lyrik coming tomorrow so I'm excited to see how it rides with that. The Slash is like a mini DH bike so it plows harder but the Optic is a lot more nimble. If the Lyrik works out I might try building up a hardtail with the Pike from the Optic haha
So what's the verdict on the norco short traveler? How's it compare to the trek? Sick trail btw.
