Interesting.
I’ve got a Superlight and a Heckler. Since I got the Heckler I never ride the superlight, in fact I’ve given it to my GF. Because whenever I go out I want to find stuff to ride off or fly into, and the Heckler gives you the confidence to do that, and you can comfortably ride it all day too.
I’m not planning to enter any races any time soon, I’m not bothered about being first to the top of the hill and I’ve got a hardtail for local hacking so the Superlight doesn’t get a look in.
Before I bought the Heckler I thought lots about where my riding is at and exactly what I want my bike to do, and it seems to fit the bill perfectly. I’m sure an LT2 would do the trick too, but somehow it just doesn’t float my boat aesthetically, and when you walk in the garage you’ve got to look at your bike and think – wow, I’ve just gotta go ride that, now!
Interesting what you say, because I always thought the Nomad would be the only thing to tempt me off my Heckler.
SC rules!
