First month Riding a Transition Bike.

I was not expecting to like this bike soooo damn much compared to my previous bike.

I used to ride a Specialized Status 160

The biggest selling point for me was the climbing experience.

Almost every local trail I ride requires some climb. And I knew the status was not good for it but goddamn. I feel a night and day difference with the Patrol Carbon GX.

Does the flip chip actually changes riding style? Anyone with experience on high setting and low setting?

Almost every single aspect of this bike feels like an upgrade.

I kinda dislike the maven bronze brakes but im currently waiting on the tuning kit to make them more progressive.

Other than that. I think this was by far the greatest choice I could go for.
