Tell me where you rode today...

We have similar tastes in bikes. Epic and SJ cover most of the bases. Which do you ride more often? I like the riding position and wider versatility of the SJ more. My poor Epic has not been getting much seat time lately.
Haha, I said that awhile ago too! I'm more comfortable 'riding' the Epic. The SJ is more purposeful for me (heavier trail riding, pushing limits etc). But I find locally that I can really throw the Epic Evo around more that I expect. It's extremely versatile out here.

I’ve actually been thinking of taking the wheels and tires from my epic and putting them on my SJ. I think I’d save about a pound of rotating weight that way and the ground controls will roll easier. The SJ comes with wheels and tires that are likely overkill for my weight and pace.

Happy Birthday!!!

I ran Controls on my SJ for the longest without issues, and I'm just a tad heavier than you at 210 lol. I only switched to the 'heavier' Traverse for Moab and to push the bike more in a responsible manner. I say go for it and move the Epic wheels to the Stumpy.

Or, New Wheel (Birth)Day!!!
