Strengths:
Very strong frame, improved link (cnc'ed one piece) which makes it even better then the 99 SL. Much better stickers ! Yahoo ! Replaceable deraileur hanger !

Bike Setup:
XTR, Hope Pro disk brakes, C. King (God) wheels & headset, Mobypost, Intense Freeride tires.
Bottom Line:
The Ultimate freeride, playbike, drop or die bike in the world. I even use it for X-country (Am I gay now?) This is the bike to have in 2YK, nothing else matters. Intense has a reputation and they keep it : they are simply the best ! Jeff Steber should have a statue !
