Bottom Line:
This bike is one of the better dual suspension all mountain bikes I've ridden thus far. She climbs really well, floats over any obstacle, solid on some jumps, and does well cross country. Really good multi-purpose MTB. Only drawbacks of this one I find is the saddle which seems to be a bit hard for me, and the grips, but those are easily replaced. Tora fork is awesome, so is the fox float rear shock. Definitely not a beginners bike, based on it's cost, but if you have the money, buy it. You will not be disappointed at all.
