Howdy all, just been thinking again, and before I get to far into a Bear frame, what do you guy's think of the new SC Heckler's?
They are somewhat in the same ball park, by that I mean they both are ment for trail riding, lite freeriding, and just out having fun. They both seem to fit a bill between a DH or freeride bike and a XC bike. Im thinking that because the heckler has 5" of travel vs the 4"s of the kona that it might be a little more fun on the ski runs of Mammoth mtn. The one thing that Im wondering about is, is the brake jack thing really a big deal? (regarding the single pivot SC) Becuase the Kona doesnt have the Horst links, it to will have some break jack, but will the Heckler have more?
Will or would I notice the 1" of difference?
Thanks, Bob
