Strengths:    This bike sucks. Nothing good. Never buy an Oryx

Weaknesses:    For this much money, they could have spaced the water bottle mounts properly. Also, my Rock Shox's broke right open and leaked fluid because the cable plugs hit the adjustment cap when the front turn turns too far. Have to have bike shop get the torch out to move the cable plugs under the frame and the bottle mounts. Complete junk.

Bottom Line:   
Absolute Garbage. Poorly made. Things sloppily and carelessly soldered together.

Strengths:    
Go anywhere
awesome frame
price to componentry ratio
plush travel


Weaknesses:    
Pogo's a bit but is ok when the preformance in on the downhills and singletrack is considered


Bottom Line:   
This bike rocks. For free ride it takes anything you throw at it and it's not too bad for DH DS And i tried a 24hr xc race on it (please don't try this i liked going on the downhill sections of the trail but had to walk her up most hills. Other than that i love her and she's ma baby. Oh and it's the sweetest thing i've evertried for fire roads down mountains. Very responsive
