I guess for me, living in good, 'ole flat Florida even posting in the Downhill lounge launches me into that category. Like most I've kept up with the never-ending pursuit of what I think I need in regards to frames, components, and the like.
What it really boils down to is that I love to ride and that the pursuit of newer and better things has ultimately made me ride less and less-- to the point of burning out and not riding. I mean, really, what does the Sovereign offer a trail rider like me -- who will make occasional trips to the BMX track and maybe a few DH runs a year in Georgia or the Carolinas -- that a good, solid bike like a Kona Unit or Surly 1x1 cannot? I in no way mean any disrespect to any of the aformention companies, just that I don't know if the percieved benefit is there, for me. Not, that a Sovereign with a Talas wouldn't be perfect.
thanks for listening, err reading.
