You have return with the SRAM system, the Shimano is a lots more reliable (and piss easy to bleed).
Shimano hydraulic is always better than SRAM (especially Avid).
Frankly, the trade on that Arkose is low enough to get everything and replace the frame, it's a good job the rear housing for the disc isn't internal.
Genesis are awesome, but with Evans being Evans, you don't get as good a deal as we do (independent directly from Sportline) with our, including an extra 15% staff discount on top of trade.

That's what's buzzing in my head. The bike I've got now (old MTB with fatties and mad spacer stack) really ain't comfortable despite all efforts.
I was eyballing the Arkose 5, especially with trade available, but we've had way too many returns with Rival hydro issues so not as optimistic.
Bikepack for sure, but I really want to keep a front rack and bag, hence keenness on the 920.
Need to see what it looks like in the flesh.
Or just Genesis all the things!
