Looking at purchasing my first FS bike and have narrowed it down to the Slash 8 Gen 5 and Fuel ex Gen 6. There is a sale on at the moment and they are very similar price wise.

I will be riding 80/20 bike park/trails. Mostly my pedalling will be to get me to the descents, jumps etc.

Is the Fuel ex capable enough or would I be better off with the Slash? Has anyone owned/ridden both? Any feedback would be much appreciated.
