Additional Info

My 2023 Nukeproof Mega 297, "BMO" (the character from Adventure Time)

Love mixed wheels, I had spent time on the Giga 297 and the Megawatt prior to building this bike.  A bit too much bike for my regular trails, but when the upper mountains dry it it is going to be fantastic.  I have since swapped the grips for my Sensus Disisdaboss grips.  I have medium-sized hands and love the feel of the Sam Hill grips, but they are a little thicker than my preference.  Also, the Super Soft compound is basically a race weekend grip, it is amazing if you ride gloveless and want to run a grip for a weekend or a week of racing but they are pretty worn out after a few days on the bike.

I cannot say enough positive things about the Push Eleven Six.  It is amazing.  If I were looking at a carbon wheel upgrade, or a Push Eleven Six, I would get the Eleven Six every time.  I feel like it was made specifically for me and this bike, insane small bump repetitive hit sensitivity, but it still has a poppy, playful feel.
