Strengths: Light and fast with little maintenanceWeaknesses: A little bouncy in the rear.Bottom Line: Fast and light. Mine weighs about 27 lbs. with slimmed tires. Figure about 26 lbs. with lighter tires and regular tubes. The rear end is a little bouncier in the rear compared with the Giant Anthem, but not enough to really make a difference. It's light weight for the money. 2 to 3 lbs. heavier than a similarly equipped aluminum hard tail. The Rockshox Sid no doubt helps the bike in the weight department. All in all, I'm pleased with the bike when used for cross country. Think of it as a really, really plush hard tail.
Favorite Trail: East Mountains Otero trail
Duration Product Used: 1 Year

$1900.00
