Sorry for the delay in answering. I find that I prefer to ride the Burner the most. I can't say that it is the bike though. I have NOX carbon rims which spread out the tread and I can run lower pressure which greatly improves traction. The Chilcotin works great but at 32 pounds I use for days when playing downhill racer. The 5 Spot I have set up as my wet weather bike; fenders lights. I need to put better tires on it. I rum Maxxis DHF, DHR 2.3 on all the rest of my bikes. I did order the Turner RFX 27.5 carbon to see if it will become my ONE bike. We will see.
