Strengths: Ridiculously light, strong frame, smooth shifting, great stopping power, looks amazing, quality components just a wonderful bike.Weaknesses: ZeroBottom Line: I really love this bike. Bought it off a buddy because he is upgrading, but wow. This bike is quick, light and stays suprisingly well planted on the trails. Extremely happy with this purchase. I also found that climbing is significantly easier with this bike. I had always struggled with this previously. Bike is very predictable and easy to manouver on trails. Out riding in Canmore right now and the element is preforming like a champ. Would definititely recommend this bike for cross country enthusiasts.

Strengths: Reliable proven design. Efficient, fast, simple. Beautiful build... would hardly change a thing (maybe the seat). Great looking.Weaknesses: ME! Other than that I can say my only complaint is tight mud clearance on rear wheel.Bottom Line: I love this bike. Aside from the wow factor and the beautiful paint job this bike is a fast, flawless ride. It's comfortable and efficient on long marathon type rides/races. And fast and snappy on the quick rides. Shifts so perfectly and is super easy to dial in. I barely had to do anything to keep this bike in flawless performance shape all year... just kept polishing/lubing it up after the rides. People get caught up in all of these different linkage systems... Rockymountain has found something that works and it's hard to beat which is why I keep gravitating back to this bike, and it's why most of my friends keep dropping further back when they ride with me.

Strengths: This bike ROCKS. Just got it today and did my first ride. It does everything you want your mountain bike to do. I was faster and felt fresh after a two hour hard ride.Weaknesses: NoneBottom Line: I wish I bought this bike years ago. Jessie at Adrenaline Bikes spent a lot of time with me, making sure I got everything right. He explained how this bike would be perfect for me and my style of riding. Jessie is the Man,
I had to pick the bugs out of my teeth because I was smiling the whole ride. This bike will make all your riding dreams come true.
