Was at overton last weekend.
Big ring pace
Trail was riding fast
Definitely better on a 275. Kept over steering on the 26
I miss the fast flow of long Island trails. I also miss the fact if you miss your line… it doesnt send you over the bars Like the trails in florida. Be nie to see more Bridges, Ladders and A frames.
Overton has broken in nicely and rides like a big pump track…was there on Sunday with the boys. A 29er hardtail, 650b Am, and a 26 SS rigid…Big rings??? What are those? Should try out Hempstead Harbor, but your big ring might not make it…
Exactly 
Limited time, Had to pack up the last of lorettos house for the second home WE purchased for her son. She is selling her house in NY. I maybe back again in march if I do I ill bring the spider.
BTW I ditched the little ring on the Spider along with the shifter and dearailluer. I Didn’t use it on Long Island and didn’t use it here. Knocked that much more weight off my already light bike. Only thing is I am finding a 38T front is still too small, keep running out of gears. I need at the least a 40 or 42. The 38 is OK for getting over stuff, a Teeny weenie ring would have me spinning like I am on a BMX bike, I see a lot of people doing that.
Speaking of which… I went bigger on the front of my Redline pro flight 24 with clipless… holy crap what a difference,.
