Race bikes are made for winning alone and present our development team with a completely different challenge than creating comfort orientated full suspension bikes. Rigidity, weight and riding position are the crucial factors in winning a race. Following two years of intensive study and dialogue with our team riders, we choose an uncompromising Scandium hardtail as the perfect race weapon.

Strengths: Great Climber and descender because of high quality products and design.
Weaknesses: None that I have noticed
Bottom Line:
The best Cross Country race machine I have ever ridden. Is definitely the race weapon of choice for all cross country racers looking to win. For the average trail riding person I would choose one of the many trail and all mountain bikes also offered by Bionicon
Another UST option.
