Ellsworth suspension mount is superior

Look at that mount/welding, it looks way more sturdy and sensible than
what's on the YETI and Maverick.

I don't believe Ellsworth has a bike cheaper than $5,000.00.

So who offers the better bike, Maverick, YETI, Rocky Mountain, or
Ellsworth?

You are comparing a Ti frame to alum. frames. Of course the Ti going
to look cleaner.

I've seen too many busted Ellsworth to spend my money on. Yeti not
big in the NW so I don't know much
about them. RMs are very good bike. If I was buying now it would be
an Intense Spyder or the Giant Anthem.

But, you need to learn to ride you hard tail better before going to FS.

Another thing besides how often something breaks is what the
maker does to make it right.

I had an Ellsworth Isis with a open-and-shut/slam-dunk defective
weld. Looked like a classic "cold" solder joint with blobs of
metal instead of the scalloped bead of a proper weld.

Ellsworth eventually replaced it, but experience was a needlessly
miserable one - miserable enough that I wouldn't buy another
Ellsworth unless it was through a middleman that I knew had some
clout and would deal with Ellsworth for me.

Sunshine and KDR had "the same" bikes so are they just dealers
and NOT manufacturers I assume?

Nah the just co-oped the webdesign. Pretty typical stuff really. Both
companies are listed as Manufacturers, so if it isn't simple co-oping
I would guess that they are mirror companies ...very shady. Then again
so are their bikes.

Hardtails are much more difficult to ride than full suspension, are
you trying to play a mind game with me ookums?

No need to do that. Your mind already plays games with itself.

No - in fact "double sissy" on you if you ride a full-sus. I bet you
can't drive a stick-shift, either...
