My Epic is on order and DH has a S-Works HT on order. I cannot wait. I wanted to believe it was just a fad, I really did. But I thought the cornering was so much better. I can't get that, how can it be? It wasn't sluggish, it was fast! The climbing is a bit of a problem since I find myself in a way bigger gear on the flats but I am really looking forward to going 29er. I admit it, I drank the Koolaid and it was soooooo good!
