    If you were to have one do it all bike for trails here in Ireland, what style of bike would you go for? XC, Trail, enduro, dh? I live near ballyhoura and many of the trails are long and flowy but would still like the option of racing enduro in the future

    Either Trail or Enduro. Personally, if I was to have only one bike, it'd be an enduro emtb.

    A full travel bike, around 110-120 in front , same in the rear. That makes it light enough to ride xc trails and actually enjoy the hills as well as the technical descents. IMO an enduro bike is too heavy to enjoy riding unless its enduro only-and is pretty useless in Ballyhoura.

    Ive got an epic evo, I can do everything except downhill on it. A great bike and easy to add upgrades as you like.
