Strengths:    Where to begin. It is stable. It is stiff where it needs to be. It is FAST!

Weaknesses:    NONE.

Bottom Line:   
I have ridden a lot of bikes. I started out with a full suspension pogo stick, then got my very cool litespeed, which was too small. I have average size legs and gorilla length arms so I needed a bike that could accomodate that, and Matt built one for me. Why a 29er? I do long rides and ultra events and want a bike set up for climbing primarily and the ability to get up and go on the flats. Again, Matt's bike fit the bill. It is by far the fastest bike I have had. The platform is very stable on twisty single track or screaming down a drit road at fifty MPH. Everything on it is perfect and I feel now I am done collecting bikes and even after half a year of having it, I do not come close to looking at or dreaming of my next bike. This is it.
