Going back to a hardtail – even one with progressive geometry like the Primer – required patience. The payoff was well worth it.
Progressive geometry (65° HTA, long reach)
Climbs fast despite weight
Steel frame gives smooth pedal feel
Snappy out of corners
Carries momentum well
DT Swiss wheels are stiff, durable, straight
Fox 36 fork with good small bump compliance and progressivity
XTR brakes powerful and consistent
XTR drivetrain shifts perfectly, no chain drops
Race Face dropper post works flawlessly in cold
Chromag saddle comfortable with extra nose cushion
WTB Bridger 3.0 tire grip limited on rock and at edge of tread
Not nimble for quick side-to-side transitions
Technical climbs require A-game and precise line choice
Acceleration not violent due to weight and wheel inertia
Dropper post thumb shifter has cable play and rattles
XTR brakes squeal in cold until warm
