Strengths:    Riding for 12 mths haven't touched a thing. The bike is amazing.

Weaknesses:    NONE!

Bottom Line:   
Buy it. You will not be disapointed. Strong, Fast, and realiable. With the tubeless tyres and goo, I have NOT had a punture. It is amazing, and with the tubes I was getting pinch flats all the time. The gears are sharp and crisp they respond beautifully. The lock out on the front and rear, hardly touch it because the set up is that good, I don't get much bob. Brakes, wow stops on a dime, tyres I have still the standard Maxxis Cross marks, they are a great tyre. LOVE this bike.
