New ride for this year..2013 knolly podium vs devinci wilson carbon

[invol2ver]

Looking for thoughts and opinions on the two...they are both amazing bikes but I'm having a hard time choosing.

[Metanoia]

If you have ridden them both and have good feeling on both of them, some things you might want to consider :

*after market service
*bearing change - is it very hard to change the bearings?
*price

[invol2ver]

can anybody comment on how the wilson pedals and feels leaving the ground?

i know the devinci has a dave weagle designed suspension, split pivot, not sure what it feels like but i ride a dw link DHR and i know my dhr pedals amazing and jumps amazing

I have not jumped my buddies Wilson, but it sure does pedal good though. He as had the bike for just a short time, but is really liking it so far.

yeah i read those. i was hoping somebody who has had a chance to test ride both would be able to chime in. not the 13s but the new style wilson and a podium

I own a 2011 which is the newer style Wilson and though I have read reviews saying the Wilson is not great at jumping I have no issues. I rode every jump trail on it at Whistler except for Crab Apple hits and it jumps very well, very stable.

Here is a vid of me following a guy down Dirt Merchant.

Thanks I just learned to jump last summer, I had 4 days in the park 2011 and then about 15 days in the park by the time I made that video this past summer. Was funy, I spent 25 days at Whistler this summer with out any major issues and then I broke both my arms in August on a XC ride lol=/
