Strengths:    Lite Weight , INTENSE quality construction (paint, gussetting, etc.)

Weaknesses:    no replaceable deralleur hanger, They Don't Make It Anymore!

Bottom Line:   
It's so sad that Intense discontinued this frame. I've heard that they cancelled it because it was too extreme. The Tracer is a trail bike whereas the UZZI XC excels at it all. Too bad I'm not good enough to ride this bike to its full potential. I Love it, even though its obsolete. It weighs 25 lbs. And into its third season it still looks great. Its a bad bike! Get one if you can!

Strengths:    
Climb aboard and rip!
Excellent handling
Superb fit/feel
Well crafted
Strong


Weaknesses:    
I'm paranoid someone is going to steal it because it looks so cool!
I ride it so much my wife and kids will probably leave me!


Bottom Line:   
Wow, I guess I will post a review here-- I had one posted under the Uzzi SL but I'll pop this cherry and put up the first review for the Uzzi XC which I've had since last fall. This is a killer bike! It handles tight singletrack like no other bike I've ridden and it climbs exceptionally well-- mine weighs about 26.5 lbs. I got a deal on the new Magura Louise Disc Brakes and I'm glad I popped the extra dough for them. They make this rig a joy to ride in any type of conditions and really accentuate the handling of the bike. With all that said, this bike really turns heads as well. I didn't buy it becuase it looks cool but its fun to check out the double takes you get while riding it. I let my buddy ride it while I took a spin on his single speed this past weekend and he remarked I was going to take it easy but after 5 minutes in the saddle, I felt so comfortable I had to let it rip! Nuff said-- buy one from Kalo Mountain Bikes and you will like it!
