Strengths:    I have the stock 08 model, the frame is very strong, the spec is great with everything holding up great. The hayes stroker brakes are particularly good.

Weaknesses:    Some of the reienforcement is probably a bit overkill and it makes the bike a bit heavy.

Bottom Line:   
This bike is great, you will break yourself before you break this bike. I have abused this bike alot and everything has held up great. It's a great all rounder good on the DJ's and good for downhill.
