from Australia Date Reviewed: February 20, 2010 Strengths: Does everything very well. The bike to do it all. Downhill, uphill jumps... if you land pretty smooth i would be happy for 4 foot drops no worries. Weaknesses: On downhill runs the forks feel a little on the light side. A pair of fox 36 talas would be simply awesome, however it would reduce the xc ability. Could think about swapping the rear shock for a rp23 if you dont do downhill type riding.

from cardiff Date Reviewed: July 29, 2009 Strengths: Everything, this bike is absolutely brilliant, however if you fall off and you get your leg tangled, it is hard to get out due to the shape of the frame. Weaknesses: Nothing really. However if you go over a bump and a stone hits your suspension (bit sticking out at the bottom) it can leave quite a mess.

from Québec Date Reviewed: May 21, 2009 Strengths: Maestro design really works. Well specked for the price. Weaknesses: Many defective parts right out of the box: the rear hub was slack, discs were warped, the chain broke on first ride ravaging the xo and hanger and damaging the frame. waited 2 weeks for giant representative to see the bike. all this to hear that giant takes no responsability for any crappy parts they put on their bikes; you have to deal with the companies. This mess made me realise that the dropouts are way too thin for an all-mountain bike. they took off 1.5 pound of aluminium compared to last model. its nice to reduce weight, but not when it compromises frame resistance.
