That is the choice which I can't make: a California made bike that lived the North Shore history, or a bike designed and made in BC to deal with that specific terrain. Can't decide, but I have a Brodie in the garage, probably will never even see a Cook. Do I go with imported exotica, or choose the home team? Also, don't even know what to think about the Mantis X, but I absolutely love it. Can't we just vote for three this time?Cook bros definitely an interesting one, but the Brodie is epic
