    Strengths:    Incredibly lightweight, XTR Groupo second to none, 30 speeds! RS Sid W/ carbon crown, plush for 100 mm but super lightweight, lightest frame in the world, super stiff! Carves xc singletrack but works great coming down. 26 in. wheels are a must for me.

    Weaknesses:    incredibly expensive but so far, worth it. 6299 retail. Handlebar had to go to swap for a little rise. Scott bike waiting lists can be agrrivating.

    Bottom Line:   
    Found this bike excellent for singletrack trails around N.C mountains, stiff ,strong frame and wheelset works great for the down hills I encounter but the climbs and straights are what I bought this bike for...I never realized that the lightweight hardtail would be so much faster than my 26 all mountain FS set-up in my XCT4 Jamis other bike. Youll learn to appreciate stiffness for increased efficiency after enough saddle time! I cannot emphasize enough that less suspension is often times MORE! Unless you are bombing downhill with chairlift rides to the top, an all mountain set up can be nothing more than extra baggage! I went through enough 4-6 inch bikes to realize this...
