Not only is the Jibb my favorite bike I've owned, it feels immensely balanced and up for any ride I want to go on. The long rear end, tall front end, and neutral-to-steep head angle combine into a bike that feels stable but not boring, capable while climbing, and still quick to turn. I've set all of my PRs on this bike, as well as consistently cleaning technical climbing sections and tight uphill switchbacks in spite of the 450mm chainstays. The bike rides much lighter than the weight would suggest, and will be my only mountain bike until the wheels fall off!
