The original Blur won many hearts with its incredible rear suspension performance and its amazing handling. People immediately began putting longer travel forks on them and going out in search of bigger, rougher terrain and new limits to push. So SC is now responding with something suited more specifically for this kind of riding -- the BLT (Blur Long Travel. Not Bacon?).
Its a Blur, swift pedaling, good climbing, and blessed with very sweet chassis integrity. But its a little more than that, too. More rear wheel travel (5.3 inches), slightly longer wheelbase for more stability, more tire clearance, a little more metal around the head and downtube for added strength and the ability to run up to six-inch forks, and a more kicked back geometry (69.5 degree head angle measured around a five inch travel fork) for added confidence in the steeps.
