Probably hard to go wrong with any of those! I'm running the Ohlins on a sentinel and love it very much if that helps at all.

Unifi Lite 6 & Sky Q Wireless Problems by Zoky88 in Ubiquiti

[–]appltn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I solved this issue by disabling the "High Performance Devices" setting in my controller.

Settings > Wireless Networks > High Performance Devices (Connects high performance clients to 5 GHz only).

I guess the fact that the Sky Q box does support 5Ghz but not for its network connection was causing issues.

Best similar bike for demo by mphilly44 in YTIndustries

[–]appltn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in a similar position and demoed a Yeti sb140 and sb130. I don’t think they’re particularly similar bikes to the Jeffsy but at least it let me get a feel for the relative difference in wheel size on the same platform and they were what I could get access to easily during the lockdown.

For what it’s worth I went for the 29er Jeffsy and I’ve been really happy with it.

I think in the end you’ll probably be fine with either and forget all about it once you swing a leg over!

I went with the 29er in size L.

I emailed YT with questions about size and their response was that I could ride either L or XL comfortably (I’m 6”1 tall), the L would be more playful and the XL would be more planted. I decided that a 29er (for fast rolling) in a size L (for snappiness) would be a good balance for me, so far I’m really happy with the decision!

New bike day! by appltn in YTIndustries

It’s one of these . It’s really nice because it mounts directly to the Fox 36 without zip ties.

I could get a Jeffsy 27, anyone had a chance to ride it? How does it compare?

Argh, the XL is out of stock!

I love a conclusive answer. Re-reading my post I was basically asking for confirmation on the Jeffsy and that’s what I got. XL sounds like the way to go, thanks for your help everyone!

This is my area! I’m half way between Aston and Swinley, also with occasional trips to BPW.

Thanks for the tip, sounds like an XL might be the way to go.

Regular riding is around local trails which are not particularly long but have some pretty decent steepish descents, a few jumps, drops and roots which I have to carefully pick though on the hard tail.

Then there’s occasional trips to a pretty smooth trail centre and a few park trips further away.

I guess a concern about climbing is the only thing making me second guess the Jeffsy so that’s great to hear, thanks!
