from Logan, UT, United States Date Reviewed: February 25, 2009 Strengths: Lefty forks is great. Manitou radium R is bombproof. Minimal bob for 140mm travel for either of the XC or FR settings. Weaknesses: Front end is really light makes you want a longer stem than necessary. Wheels are light but kinda flimsy. Trailbear tires wear quick. Pedals are ****. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Stump hollow Duration Product Used: More than 3 years Price Paid: $1600.00 Purchased At: Al's sporting goods Similar Products Used: Prophet 1000, Specialized Stumpjumper, Cannondale Gemmini, Trek Liquid, Rocky Mountian Switch. Bike Setup: Had to shorten the stem since I went with the large frame but once I shortened the stem it felt right at home and made me glad I didn't go with the medium frame.

from Round Rock, TX Date Reviewed: October 15, 2008 Strengths: This bike is a beast. It runs circles around all the other guys I ride with and they are on much more expensive Specialized bikes. I have taken 4-6" drops over and over and the lefty shock never fails. Weaknesses: Base crank (Truvativ) was fairly week and needed to be replaced. I upgraded to a Shimano XT for $100 and this thing hums now. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Lake Georgetown Duration Product Used: 2 Years Price Paid: $1200.00 Purchased At: REI Similar Products Used: Specialized Hard Rock and GT Bike Setup: All XT components, lefty front shock, manitou R rear shock.

from Centreville, VA Date Reviewed: April 24, 2008 Strengths: Everything, Lefty is amazing, stock drive train not half bad but change it out when it wears out, it will make all the difference. Wheels arent horrible but could be better. Brakes- not hydraulic but might as well be with the stopping power you get Weaknesses: Cannondale levers, Wore out after a year of use Manitou Radium-very edgy horrible for small bumps, poor match with the lefty Deore shifters, wheels need some beefing up Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: VA mountains Duration Product Used: More than 3 years Price Paid: $900.00 Purchased At: Cannondale Bike Setup: 05 Prophet 600 High Gloss red DHX 5.0 Air 7.875x2.0 XT rear (new) LX shifters Avid brake levers Yeti Hard core grips Raceface Evolve DH crankset Sram Red spider cassette soon to be mavic 819 rims with onyx hub in back
