Date Reviewed: July 18, 2001

Strengths:    Nice ride, good braking. Shifter is good and solid.

Weaknesses:    Handle bar stem is not raisable. Rear brake arms, Wilderness cracked. Stem seal cracked. EX2 rear suspension mount to frame has too small a surface area, hence it tends to wear quickly resulting in excessive lateral torsion in the frame, and I can't tighten it.

Bottom Line:   
Too few specs available online from manufacturer.

Strengths:    
light wieght acceleration great handeling lack of suspension pogo
all the goodies


Weaknesses:    
tire is not good if you live anywhere but so.cal
gimme a rise bar


Bottom Line:   
this bike is the best of both worlds light weight quick ,agile, stable the fork is much better than I would have expected from any air fork and and better than all other forks I have tried (98 judy sl, manitou fs ti) and no spring or oil visc. changes needed I hope it holds up.I had my doubts about the 9 speed stuff but in the real world it seems to work great love to stay in the middle ring and smooth shifts upgrade to the xt 11-34 cog set first thing with the XTR cranks 24-34-46 ti makes the gearing range better and ditch the tires for full Knobs its a great ride all 25.5 lbs
