Speerboy Date Reviewed: August 20, 2012 Strengths: This bike is like no other bike I have ridden - it is just a blast carving up the single track through the trees. I know what it means to truly go "play bikes". Its as smooth and agile as can be and climbs and descends with ease. I have no regrets investing in this rocket. It looks amazing and is a head turner. All I can say is go buy one. Weaknesses: None so far! I have been having too much fun! Oh - maybe two things. Its hard to fit on my Thule quad bike rack. And theres not much room for a large water bottle. I just have to get used to my camel pak. Bottom Line:

a Weekend Warrior Date Reviewed: June 20, 2012 Strengths: Very good steering, super responsive and agile comparing with other 29'ers I tried. Lightweight, Lefty works very smoothly comfortable lockout, back wheel keeps perfect contact with gtound also. XL very comfortable for my 194 cm heighth. Climbs well, accelerates amazingly good. Fizik sadle for the medium level riders - sporty but not too hard. Weaknesses: biggest chainring (I think it's 39) too small - for higher speed bigger would be much better, but that's adjustable. Deraileurs and other components could be higher level Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Lithuanian MTB trails Purchased At: Umarai Similar Products Used: Giant Trance 3 26'er, Norco Shinobi 29'er, Trek Fuel

a Cross Country Rider Date Reviewed: May 15, 2012 Strengths: The best handling mountain bike I have ever owned. Lefty fork is amazing, great contact with the road at all times. Great climbing bike with the fork and frame shocks locked. Great fast descending bike with the shocks unlocked. Fast and precise steering. Very light for the price for full suspension. Very quiet on the trail, no annoying creeks and squeaks. Shifting is precise and brakes work better than any I have used in 55 years of cycling. This is my first 29er and I am sold on big wheels. Weaknesses: Nothing significant. I hate that you have to take the front brake off the fork to get the wheel off, but that's a minor annoyance. Wouldn't mind a better gruppo, but everything seems to work well.
