short travel at lysty, plantation @youies or yarra trails is plenty, IMO. I have ridden my Rune at the yarra trails, but it was a bit of a slog.Was the jury ever out on overbiking being a bad thing?
Underbiking should be illegal.
Yes, that's kind of my thoughts too. You should have the bike that you enjoy most, unless you are seriously into racing, then you may need to pick the bike that suits what you are riding more than how you enjoy it.Over biked/Under biked is in your own head. If you are having fun on XC trails that could be ridden happily on a 100mm 70° HA XC bike... on your 160mm enduro bike and not wishing for something else, your are doing it right.
Every bike will hold you back, over/under biked is only when it starts to annoys you.
Strava is racing right?Yes, that's kind of my thoughts too. You should have the bike that you enjoy most, unless you are seriously into racing, then you may need to pick the bike that suits what you are riding more than how you enjoy it.
If you are on a bike, and because of the type of bike it is (be it under-biked or over-biked) and you hate riding, you are on the wrong bike.
Me being a tight arse and procrastinating too much prevents me from having a bike for every occasion. My 2015 Norco Sight is now my only weapon of choice. That may change when the whole bike scarcity craziness calms down a bit.My finances solve the situation for me of whether to be over or underbiked.
I subscribe to i+1 where i = injury.Many posters in this thread sailing dangerously close to being banned for discouraging n+1.
