I have decided on getting a SJ evo for bike park and local trails. And can get these at my lbs for sale. I'm not sure if it's worth getting the higher spec alloy bike or lower spec carbon. How do these frames differ in ride and suspension feel for those have had the chance to ride them? Thanks.

    I have included the 99 spoke comcomparison below.

      Personally I would go for the Ltd. I would get it for the suspension alone (Factory vs. Rhythm is a pretty big upgrade). And you also get better wheels (Roval with a lifetime warranty), and AXS.

      I ride a carbon bike now at my bike park and honestly I miss riding my alloy bike there. Alloy bikes seem to soak up the rough terrain a bit better and it starts to make a difference by the end of the day..

      Check incycle too and see if they have any models that you’re interested in, in your size. I copped a Evo Expert NIB last week for $2169. 56% off.
