Strengths: Excellent bike for those who want to ride it all. 5 and 5 of efficient yet bump absorbing travel. Switched from a rocky hardtail and immediatly started riding faster and clearing obstacles and small drops I would not have on the old steed. Appreciate the adjustable travel for climbing as this a good portion of my regular ride and have enjoyed doing a bit of downhilling and stair / loading dock (low) play. Did my first xc race 40k with no mech issues. Also enjoy being able to buy Canadian!Weaknesses: Cable routing - have snagged rear derailer cable on seat post collar. Make sure cable goes under front
derailer cable. Not much rear tire clearance.Bottom Line: Love the Remix! I 've been able to do a little bit
of all types of riding with some level of
confidence and still ride fast when I wanted to.
Other than regular maintainence and the
occaisional damage due to the wind, sun in my
eyes etc. causing me to crash she's been a great dance partner. Highly recommend for the "just one bike"
rider who wants it all.

Strengths: Very versatile bike: at ease whatever you are climbing or descending, rocky or smooth ground.Very Rigid, very well finished. Very good suspension and geometry.Weaknesses: No real weaknesses from the bike itself. I would have prefered an anodized to normal painting because of the durability. Otherwiose International Distribution network is almosrt non existant.Bottom Line: Very esay to ride. Great comfort. Efficient in all situation. Very Stiff and compact frame that allow you to place your wheel where you want to.
A frame that I would recommend for someone looking for a versatile bike and do not wantr to buy a XC frame + a Enduro Frame: the bike does all in one!
