Strengths: Beautiful balance to the suspension set-up. Takes drops like a CHAMP..! Great on corners and maneuvering around rocks on steep sections. Feels very fast. Great pop, easy to bunny hop around on, Pedals uphill great for a 7" bike. Internal cable routing within the rear triangle for rear shifter.Weaknesses: I'd like to see internal cable routing within the downtube.Bottom Line: This design is GREAT, simple as that. The Maestro system feels fantastic on landings. The small bump sensitivity is good once you get the Totem/Vivid set-up properly for your weight.
Tip: Remove the floodgate from your Totem to increase small bump sensitivity.
Comes to life at higher speeds. It's light and easy to maneuver. I could go on all day, but the bottom line is if you are looking for a FR or heavy duty AM bike, this will not disappoint..
Favorite Trail: one's that go down and not up...

Strengths: Great geometry. Feels very solid. Convertible dropouts allow you to adjust the head angle.Weaknesses: The cables run along the bottom of the bottom tube. Not the best design considering the bike gets used for shuttling. Rocks also get kicked up and hit the brake cable.Bottom Line: I have only ridden the bike about 10 times, but it feels great. The bike inspires confidence and has tons of room for errors. I have the bike built up to 40lbs, but it climbs like my AM bike.
Favorite Trail: National, SoMo
