Derbyshire man Date Reviewed: August 2, 2012 Strengths: Was good for one month before problems began.Nice geometry and easy to ride. Like the gear change and bike felt solid initially. I am a "gentle" off roader of intermediate standard. Weaknesses: Pedal bearing broke 1 month from new, then spokes in front wheel broke and front disc brake failed. Cant use bike now as it wont stop me on over 1:5 gradient. Worst- no one cared- retailer or Scott themselves. No response from my letter of complaint.Very disappointing aftersales,the Sheffield retailer gets Olympic gold for blaming the customer for everything and making him pay- all warranties were rejected under the wear and tear clause- after 1 months use! Bottom Line:

a Cross Country Rider Date Reviewed: April 7, 2009 Strengths: i don't have one but i do have a 55. and i love it, but i changed everything to slx, hone, and xt by shimano, so i do have a little better components then the 15 does, but anyways i love the frame and it can take almost anything i through at it.. i race XC but i ride freeride in my own time... i have a 10 foot and 5 foot drop off in my woods behind my house and it takes it all... the drops or the 14 jumps, or even the wallride i have. the only thing that i have a problam with was the hangers i do not know if its the same aluminum hangers but i went through two hangers and said screw it.. so my friends dad has a machine shop and i got him to make me a harden steel hanger and i haven't had a problem with it ever since. Weaknesses: none with the frame Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: holdridge Duration Product Used: 1 Year Purchased At: sunrise bikes and bo Similar Products Used: a lot if you look but im too lazy Bike Setup: slx rear derailleur, hone front derailleur, stylo 2.2 crankset with shiftguide , lx shifters, marzocchi dirtjump 3 fork (ive changed everything but the brakes)

from Cape Town, South Africa Date Reviewed: January 15, 2009 Strengths: Plush, comfortable and generally just a nice place to be while cycling. I've spend 5500Km there already Weaknesses: The brakes in capital letters! Shimano BR-M485 Hydr. Disc set is not something i would recomend to any cyclist. It binds and even after the most carefull service and setup. 160mm rotor on the front is also not enough to stop a 85Kg rider quickly enough Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: To Hell and Back Duration Product Used: 1 Year Price Paid: $700.00 Purchased At: East Rand Mall Similar Products Used: Scott Racing Expert and it was 15Km/h faster. I believe only due to the brakes. Bike Setup: Stock standard except for the seat (Sella Italia - San Marco)

from Melbourne, Vic, Aus Date Reviewed: June 6, 2008 Strengths: Incredibly light and agile frame. Drivetrain is of good quality with the Shimano Deore and XT components. Shocks have good adjustment to suit trails. Weaknesses: At 6'4, I felt like im leaning over the handlebars too much however after fiddling with the seat adjustment have got it to an exceptable level but have just snapped the seat bolts last week. Shocks are quite noisy but they work well so not really a problem. Brakes beginning to fade under heavy load after around 800km Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Yarra trail MTB paths Chandler hwy to Westerfolds Duration Product Used: 3 months Price Paid: $999.00 Purchased At: www.bikes.com.au Similar Products Used: Shogun Trailbreaker 2 w/ rockshox indy forks, upgraded gearing etc Bike Setup: Stock ATM, possibly look at brake upgrade later on

from Edinburgh Date Reviewed: March 28, 2008 Strengths: Very light agile frame. Well thought out frame design looks good feels awesome but not too racy either. The frame has a balanced feel and helps you to feel comfortable at speed. Weaknesses: Chainset felt like it has a little bit of play after only a few days cycling, albeit after being rode through some muddy puddles but still less than a months use. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Glentress Red Duration Product Used: Less than 1 month Price Paid: $1000.00 Purchased At: Wheelies Similar Products Used: Mmmm - none but i did buy it to replace a Kona Kikapu which in turn replaced a GT IDrive 5. I know cant compare a full sus to a hardtail but honestly this beast rides so much better than both. Bike Setup: Stock - no additions yet
