hey do you know if the new M6 is easier on the DU bearings than the M3, or do you still need to replace them quite often?

Answer: I like the high speed abilities and cornering of the Bike. The geometry is a good compromise between fast and nimble and stable at high speed.
The VPP also works very well in steep, rought & rocky stuff.
The downsides are a low BB so you smash your pedals too often on rocks.
The pivot bolts came loose quickly so look at thems at on regular basis. That's not funny to wash your bike in the parking lot from 1 to 6pm when you have no more beer and your friends are still riding!
I clean dirt in the bearings once a while so they seems to last longer. I have a play after a race season (this summer), but I'm almost sure it came from my rear hub.
DU bushings from the rear shock last around 6 days before developing a slop. That's quite annoying but!
