I've got a sore spot inside my affected ear where if I put some finger pressure on it (lower part of ear) it hurts a bit. I thought it might be a pimple but it does not seem to be the case. This happened once before a while back

The 8 has essentially the same travel, through a tad bit more in the rear. The geometry is nearly the same. The expert weighs a bit less than the pro and more than the s-works. The 8 is on the newer sram transmission and has lockouts, which I don't care about too much. Anyone ride both and would be able to comment?
