      I rented a fatbike with levels and only 160 rotors on it, and rode a snow packed DH trail and the best way to describe it was they were giving polite suggestions to the bike to maybe consider slowing down haha (I'm also used to XT 4 pots and 203s at both ends). Was basically holding on and praying to the bike gods that the tires didn't find powder on that section haha

    XC & DC mtbs are the fittest bikes for the terrain that I have esp. so that it has a lot of challenging off-road climbs. Plus, I use my bikes for travelling to school/work & errands.
    This brand-new bikes are interesting! But the price... yay, very prohibiting to anyone with a tight-budget.

    Man this proprietary shit is bad. I have raced xc on many bikes and i absolutely despise useless trickery and proprietary things, I don't want to wait weeks to get part X. At he moment I ride a previous gen spark upgraded to 120mm and I don't really see a bike that can replace it. At least the new spark is more appealing than this but still a lot of integrated mess and useless non adjustable le cockpit.
    The bmc color is nice.

The Spur and the Element are so close in geo/weight that you can't go wrong with either. 130mm fork travel on the Element is a plus but 120mm on the Spur hasn't slowed me down at all. The Spur is FAST! I prefer the sharp lines and color options of the Spur over the Element. Spur also has a threaded BB vs. that creaky PF BB on the Element. 😁🤜🤛
