In "What is the right size mountain bike for me?", Steve and I ride our brains out in a day of shuttle runs to finally decide which of my two Revel Rascals is the right size for me to keep and which one is going to be raffled off to a lucky viewer.

Size matters. And trying to decide which Revel Rascal mountain bike is right for me was an incredible learning experience that will forever change how I look at bike reviews and even my own riding.

To do it we built up two identical in every way Revel Rascals with only one significant difference: 20mm of reach.

For me it didn't feel like 20mm. It felt more like two completely different bikes with completely different personalities. Both wonderful, but very different. In fact, these bikes were so wonderful it was difficult to decide but decide I did.

I won't spoil which one I selected but stay tuned for info on the Revel Rascal giveaway next week. All the proceeds are going to Eliot Jackson's Grow Foundation to build a Velosolutions pump track in LA.
