from Rochdale, EnglandDate Reviewed: September 6, 2010
Strengths: The bike climbs very well, with virtually no bob, even with the platform damping set to its minimum. The minimal platform damping enables the suspension to be very active, responding to even the smallest of bumps. The DT Swiss shock performs well when set up correctly.Weaknesses: Chain comes off a lot unless a chain device is fitted. Brake mount needed facing before use. Paintwork is easily damaged (although this will not be a problem on the anodized frames).Bottom Line: Excellent at climbing and very good on the descents. Virtually no bob when pedalling, even with the platform damping set to its minimum. The bike feels light and agile and takes rocky descents and drops in its stride. Fitted with an E13 Heim 3 chain device (the chain came off a lot without this).
