After reading the thread on Enduro bikes I started thinking:

Things I'm oblivious to.

Small bump compliance
Brake modulation on shocks
Leverage ratios
Crisp shifting
Small changes in Geometry
Pedal bob
Brake Jack

Thinks I notice.

Way too steep head angle
Crap OEM tyres

This is because I'm a crap rider or is it because I just couldn't care less

C) not ridden enough bikes to accurately pick up on what's different (It's likely that bikes with slack head angles share a lot of other characteristics too)
D) not spent enough time listening to internet experts

E) Don't really care. Just enjoy riding.

Consider yourself lucky!

I don't care about crisp shifting, I just want it to work. I notice pretty much everything else...
