love that place, small but has a good variety of tech and flow., you were hauling that money maker.

[@allenkvextreme]

Sweet video what camera did u shoot with? Is it chest mounted? I like the lewis Morris park trails as well lots of good options in that area! Have you done the trails over by ringwood or allamuchy?

[@allenkvextreme]

This was shot with GoPro Hero 9 chest mounted, yes I've done both Ringwood & Allamuchy.

Nice trail. Did you change bikes from your Fuel EX?

[@allenkvextreme]

i have both, this bike is my old one and i'm using it until i fix my trek

@@allenkvextreme Cool, I had an OLD Giant Reign (26" wheels) before I got my 2021 EX8. Really loved the OLD mystro suspension 'floating on a cloud' feel, though by god does the Fuel ride nice and allow you to plow through as much if not more than the longer travel reign could. Your EX7 got me watching you when I was looking up on their capabilities, so thanks - I now have a GREAT bike that STILL makes me feel special every time I ride it, all in part as a result of yours and others videos! (I was lucky when I got mine, as I was looking at the 7, and then the EX8 came up at a ridiculous sale price at the time, so I have never looked back!)

[@kdesign73]

do you feel a significant difference in performance , handling, and timing between the two bikes?

[@allenkvextreme]

the trance has mad upgrades and the trek is stock only new brakes/tires making it a really close fight between the two. the trek pedals better turns better (on and off berms) and caries the speed better (29er) but the trance eats the chunk like there's no tomorrow with this maxed out suspension and is 29lbs, my trek is 31lbs
