The rider position and center of gravity is too far forward unless the rider is very big. X2s become more viable with the rider moved aft 6-12 inches. A low bar makes reboarding easy, although its harder on the wrist and shoulders. I think the reason X2s and fixed steers in general arent as popular is because they have no champion to lead the rest. If a couple of the big names were doing the cool tricks on fixed steers then there would be hundreds trying to emulate.
