The longest-travel mountain bike that you own says something about who you are as a rider. Maybe you ride shuttle laps at the bike park regularly. Maybe you’re into over- or under-biking. Maybe you used to race DH but just don’t have the heart to sell your gravity rig. Whatever the case, we want to know how big your biggest bike is.
