My 2018 V1 Sentinel was pretty spot on (outside of the suspension progression, thanks Cascade)
Currently on a Spire, and while its great, and I love it, its not "better" than the Sentinel, or the Fugitive, or the Sight, just different. It excels in some areas (steep jank), and is worse in others (low angle trails, and god help you if you stand and pedal)
There isnt right or wrong geo, its always a compromise, and my 2001 Norco Shore was the best thing in the world at the time, so was my Super T forked, 24" wheeled .243 hardtail......Long live screwing with your bike!
