I demoed a carbon Troy GX a few weeks ago. Loved it. Very capable, climbed and pedaled really well, and huge fun factor. I was actually surprised to find that it weighed as much as did...didn't even notice the weight when I rode it.
Curious, for those who have ridden a recent Troy and a Django 27.5, are the differences subtle, or very noticeable? We do a lot of climbing and peddling where we mainly ride (in Northern California), but also have a fair amount of technical stuff, some pretty steep. Also, lots of fast, flowy stuff. Not a lot of jumps, but plenty of rock gardens and roots.
No shuttle, we work for everything.
