Is centerlock preferable? I’ve heard people complain about shearing off bolts on 6 bolt hubs but maybe that’s overblown?
[/quote]No preference between either. The only problem I have ever had on 6 bolt was when I
didn’t torque them properly and they came loose on me. That has happened only one time ever for me. And entirely user error.
My ONLY argument against Centerlock is you need a “special” tool to remove a rotor. Hypothetically, that means you can’t remove a bashed disc on a ride to try and straighten it. In practice I have yet to need to. One of my bikes has CL and I would never choose one over the other. Given identical scenarios, with EVERYTHING being equal, I would probably go CL.

I think 25mm - 30mm would be fine for tires I plan to run, right? (2.2-2.4 inch)
[/quote]I just went with wide wheels for the first time on my enduro bike and I am not 100% sure I can tell a difference. I still need to try a different tire to see (trying a Kenda Pinner, need to compare to an Assegai). I was running a 29/25 combo with 2.4 tires without issue.
