Coming off of a 2011 rip, i'm looking to upgrade.
Haven't ridden the new ones yet, and there doesn't seem to be a whole lot of info on them other than press releases.
I checked out a new spearfish and that thing had extremely little pedal bob. I would assume the HT is similar but it has more travel.. but i didn't ride it on anything other than some gravel roads.
i liked my rip and it's fine, but time to upgrade i guess, so that's why I'm also looking at the new rip. I prefer the fork and brakes to on the rip, but the 1x11 on HT isn't a bad thing by any means.
Just looking for some first hand ride reports--hopefully i can ride both at dirt fest next month.
