a Downhiller Date Reviewed: August 31, 2012 Strengths: super smooth to ride as the carbon damps all trail vibration... as well as the 10" travel tracks amazingly sucks up everything in it's path so light you can pick it up mid-flow and put it down wherever you want super-tough easy to set up Vivid RC2 works well stunning looks Weaknesses: none really. it's a little tight to get the gun on the grease nipples in the linkage and good riddance to the cane creek angleset headset with the 2013 model. some people complain that it is too smooth to ride -that they enjoy being bucked down a trail on their other bike. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Price Paid:
$3200.00 Similar Products Used: Demo 8 II, Glory
