from Louisville Date Reviewed: May 26, 2003 Strengths: Wonderful bike. Meant for racing/high speed riding, NOT for hucking and jumping. Climbs incredibly well, always in a straight line. Responsive, well handling bike. Light frame, my entire bike weighs 24 lbs. Craftsmanship is outstanding, and the people at Titus bend over backward to help me out with problems and questions. Recently got a good deal on a 2003 Float R through them. Well worth the $, I think this bike will keep me happy for a long time. Weaknesses: Bottom bracket height is lower than my FSR. I hit many more logs on the trails here in Kentucky. Probably not a problem out west.

from Breckenridge, CO Date Reviewed: May 17, 1999 Strengths: The frame is awesome. I've only ridden it 100 miles, but 70 were on some of my favorite trails in Moab. The stock Fox Vanilla R is easy to tune to your style(s) of riding, the frame rides and looks awesome. Beefy, yet light and, hey, its ti. I'm impressed with the frame. Weaknesses: Cable routing makes it difficult to get a solid grip on frame for hike a bike.
