I’ve got the older Line 29 and it’s a great bike. I bought it as a budget stopgap when the kids were born as I knew I wasn’t getting out riding. I thought I’d be grumpy about the budget forks and frame having come from much fancier bikes and kit, but 4 years later I’m loving it. The Recons could do with an upgrade but for most things they’re fine, the dropper was swapped out for a 200mm Brand X fairly quickly and it has a -2 angleset (but that was more personal choice than a necessity) everything else has been replaced as it wears out.
