from Pineapple under the frozen sea Canad Date Reviewed: January 5, 2012 Strengths: Very good bike for the price point. It has taken over as my everyday bike and I love it. It did do several upgrades left over from my Scalpel partout. Weaknesses: DT Swiss rear shock, would much rather have a fox rear and might upgrade to one at a later date, for the time being I just have it locked out all the time Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Duration Product Used: 3 months Price Paid: $960.00 Purchased At: Overlook Mountain Bi Similar Products Used: Cannondale Scalpel Bike Setup: I changed it over to a Sram X0 drive train with Race Face crank for now, more upgrades at a later date

from newcastle, NSW, Australia Date Reviewed: November 27, 2011 Strengths: very robust bike, immensely light weight frame which helps on the uphill mountain climbs. shimano running gear works well if kept maintained with oil. twinlock system is a brilliant addition by Scott, works great for fire trails and riding on sealed roads to ensure you don't waste any energy on bouncing on the shock. Both front and rear shocks are easily adjustable to suit any ride, takes a little trial and error to find the optimum setting for yourself but a good result in the end. Shimano brakes aren't the most expensive or best you can buy however, they have a lot of feel and work great. Weaknesses: DT Swiss M210 shock seems to leak a lot of air, have spoken to the people where I purchased the bike and it seems im not the only one with the problem. apparently the seals inside can become dry and wear out to cause the air leak. I have been assured that once the seals are replaced, should never happen again... Scott seat is not the best on the market and could/should be upgraded to a softer, better version especially for longer rides. I paid a discounted price, $1000 less then retail, so for full price, could get a lot better bike. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Awaba state Duration Product Used: 3 months Price Paid: $1500.00 Purchased At: Newcastle Similar Products Used: Trek 3000 Bike Setup: Duel suspension 100mm front/rear travel XC bike, large frame with 26" tyres.
