Considering a tyee

Long story short - I currently have a canyon spectral which I really enjoy. However - I’ve broken two frames within a years time in the same exact spot and will likely be looking to move on from canyon once I get a warranty replacement.

TYEE is high on my list.

What is everyone’s experience with aluminum frame durability and US customer service? Anything you feel the Tyee lacks? Anything it excels at? Coil vs air feel (I’d be going dhx2 or float x2)

Really just looking for honest owner opinions on the Tyee AL.

FWIW I live in Asheville NC - consider myself an “advanced” rider (feels pretty cringe saying that) and typically ride rocky, rooty, fast & steep singletrack with a little jumping sprinkled in, but it’s definitely not my favorite part of mountain bikes.

Fig’s results

Shelter said staffy / spaniel

DNA says APBT / Lab / catahoula - I was not at all surprised by her breeds, but was surprised at how few were mixed in there!

She’s growing fast and will probably be a pretty big girl :)

What is Fig?

This is fig. She’s 11 weeks old and from the shelter.

Shelter said staffy/spaniel mix - but we’re not sure.

She could totally have some (or a lot) of staffy in her - but her coat is longer in the chest and overall more similar to a lab coat than a staffy coat. Her ears seem to be getting longer and longer in comparison to her head as she grows.

We got a DNA test and are waiting on results but thought it’d be fun to get some guesses!
