I took her out last Monday on a pretty rocky, dry (SoCal) trail. It's amazing how differently she rides compared to the Yo Eddy. The Wicked feels more stable on the descents and glides through the rough stuff. The Yo! is right at home on tight, twisty trails and the chainstay length is perfect for out of the saddle climbs.

I love Top Mount Shifters....I'm gonna have to log off and go look at an old Bike Pro catalogue from the early 90's and drift off to sleep.

:cool:

Dude(how many times have I started a reply w/ that?!):D That is such a nice ride,I believe yuor right. The Wicked just "grooves" thru therocky stuff; while the Yo just blasts thru it. I am amazed at the shape your bikes are in.:D

Also, is your front tire on backwards?

That GEAX tire was on backwards. It was an oversight as it was purely mounted for appearance. (not a fan of the tire). I assure you the Timbuk II's are properly mounted and have seen dirt.:p
