This is the year, turning 50 and want to get a good XC type bike! I would appreciate any kind of feedback on what y’all think. 😊
Have about 4K or so to spend. As of now, have it narrowed down to either the new Canyon Lux Trail 8 (could possibly look at the 7 as well) and the Intense Sniper T Pro. I live in Nebraska, so nothing too technical or hilly. Mostly man-made single tracks and park trails that have a little climb and downhill, but nothing crazy. Mostly flat to small hills, roots and gravel riding. Would like to take the bike to Colorado, South Dakota, and North Dakota sometime as well. Also thinking about doing the Nebraska State Games Mountain bike event at Branched Oak.
Let me know what y’all think…and thanks in advance! CHEERS!
