After surgery for a hernia earlier in the year I was feeling very uncomfortable over rough ground with my 2016 hardtail Haibike. Thought it was time for a full suspension so treated myself to a Merida E140. It's much more comfortable over the bumps, I know I could have fitted a suspension post to the Haibike but as I use a dropper post that was not an option I was going to consider. Covered a couple of hundred kilometers so I'm starting to get things like suspension air pressure, brake reach etc dialed in.
