from marietta, GA, USA Date Reviewed: December 12, 2008 Strengths: tires are great, it might be better to have nontubeless tires though. the lefty is really nice, but you have to learn how to "set" it. the manitou setup is really nice. a really stable, solid bike for under 30 lbs. Weaknesses: could have"interchangeable" tires. a little bit heavy, but then again, im a little bit on the heavy side myself. avid juicy brakes are horrible after the first month, unless you know how to bleed them Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Big Creek Duration Product Used: 6 months Price Paid: $1100.00 Purchased At: craigslist.com Similar Products Used: Kona Dawg, Ibex Ignition Bike Setup: all original except brakes, now avid bb7, and pedals, now crankbros eggbeater(they are the bottom of the line ones, but they work just like the ti's)

from Boulder, CO Date Reviewed: May 14, 2007 Strengths: Lefty is the quickest fork out there for 140 mm. It does not pull left no matter what people say, you can ride it no handed all you want and it will go straight. Since it is coil sprung it has smooth, consistent travel only rivaled by the maverick which is a $700 fork. This bike is incredibly well balanced, and eats up anything, the gnarlier the terrain the more this bike shines, and it is quick, this bike handles like a XC bike with a little more squish. The Juicy sevens are incredible even with the stock rotors, and the stock tires aren't too bad, although they are not a true 2.35 (my friends specialized 2.0s are just as wide) but they get the job done. Tubeless tires are the sickness, they ride awesome. The frame is beautiful, every frame manufacturer should grind their welds since it gives such a clean look. Looks funny. Weaknesses: If you want to put it on the top of a car and you have to take off the front wheel, you need to get a fork up, but thats about it. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Hall Ranch, Walker Ranch Duration Product Used: 1 Year Price Paid: $1750.00 Purchased At: REI Similar Products Used: Test road only - RM slayer, Yeti 575, Specialized Enduro, Scott Ransom, Cannondale Scalpel Bike Setup: stock with Specialized Enduro 2.4 rear tire

Light weight for full-suspension Weaknesses: There has been a constant clicking noise that can only be the welds on rear of frame. On big hits it is a bit shakey on the landing.
