In my area there is a lot of short downhil/uphill transitions so it's important to me to get a bike that is snappy to power up the hills so that I don't loose the momentum while I'm riding. I've been riding several FS 29er over the last months (Jet9, Rip9, Epic Comp, Tallboy, Superfly 100, Hifi Plus). Some are snappy, others not and feel like I'm "dragging the cinder block". I can't define why exactly. Currently, ranking them, the snappiest is the Tallboy, Epic comp, Jet9, Superfly 100, Hifi Plus, Rip9.
So I'm just wondering why are some 29er FS snappy and others not ?
