a All Mountain Rider Date Reviewed: June 5, 2012 Strengths: Comes with a slew of Shimano XT and XTR parts. Great rubber connecting you to the trail with the Continental Race King 2.2 tires and DT Swiss wheels connecting the rubber to the bike. Smooth shifting and braking. Light weight (for aluminum) Beautiful finish work. Weaknesses: Handlebars, grips, seat/seatpost all seem cheap. My seat developed small wear hole after only 2 rides. It did not come with pedals (which is fine, but buyers should be aware) so I slapped some Wellgo C135's on it. (I put new bars, grips and a saddle on my bike and couldn't be happier with it overall.) Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Chicken Road Trail, FT Bragg, NC. Price Paid: $2400.00 Purchased At: Online Similar Products Used: Focus Black Hills (didn't come close to it's big brother) Bike Setup: 30mm riser bars, Wellgo C135 platforms, Cutter saddle, Stella Azzurra locking grips. I set the stem up as high as it will go. It isn't the fastest set up, but I can small jumps when I get bored.
