Strengths: light - fast - nimble - responsive - complaint - aggressive .... fast, efficient, comfortableWeaknesses: none for whom looking for the ultimate hardtailBottom Line: The bike is the epitome for whom is looking for the ultimate hard tail.
The design is just perfect, the bike is perfectly balanced, it rides miraculously doesn't matter what you through at it and at what speed you evolve.
A great investment the best you can do you will enjoy it for years to come.

Strengths: flawless handling, stiff and fast.Bottom Line: Carbon bikes are fads and only last 1-2 years if you really ride them. I sold my A9C after every scandium frame cracked. I wasn't going to wait for the carbon to fail so I bought timeless mountain bike. The Moots is and amazing ride.

Strengths: Amazing climber, comfortable and confident descender. Frame balance and geometry (not twitchy/nervous or slow), weight, durability, craftsmenship, incorporation of new technologies (PF BB30, tapered headtube). Incredibly balanced.Weaknesses: Have not found any though some may say price. I went through two scandium hardtail 29ers and spent the same. Could have gone Moots and been good to go.Bottom Line: Extremely balanced result of Moots doing the 29er hardtail thing for 20 years. You always hear about the welds, and with good reason, but the ride is exceptional. Very stiff titanium bike with the material's trademark "liveliness." Extremely light and responsive with tapered head tube and PF BB30. My best attempt to describe "liveliness" is that the material somehow responds to shifts in body weight that help you make transitions. Decided to go Ti after a stint with Scandium and am extremely happy. The Moots crew are extremely helpful and love their products. Some may claim that I'm trying to justify my purchase. I don't believe I need to as the frame speaks for itself. This is my XC race, enduro, and all day epic bike and it has done extremely well for me in the past 3 months.
