Dupont state park, NC
Duration Product Used:
Tested or demo'ed only
Strengths:
Light (for a 29er), fast, efficent, and just plain fun to ride. I have never been on a more confidence inducing bike.
Weaknesses:
No carbon.
Similar Products Used:
Surley SS 29, 29 Stumpy HT expert.
Bike Setup:
XX baby!
Bottom Line:
This bike just rocks! Will most certianly buy one. XX was very interesting, but worked well. The suspension is great and adds a dimension to the 29er that is just a blast. Lighter than I expected, 25lbs w/o pedals for a large model. I rode tight technical and rocks and this bike just ate it up. Really cool. Still too expensive for a aluminium bike. Need to work on that, Specialized.
