from London, England Date Reviewed: January 14, 2003 Strengths: Better spec and weight than anything else at this price. Smooth ride. Looks good. Simple single pivot. Perfect for long cross country rides, not a jump bike. Weaknesses: Disc brakes would be nice. Slightly longer wheelbase might make it a bit more stable. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Duration Product Used: 3 months Price Paid: $1540.00 Purchased At: Paul's Cycles Similar Products Used: Specialized Epic, Cannondale etc Bike Setup: Standard apart from X-Lite riser bar.

from Jersey CI Date Reviewed: January 7, 2003 Strengths: Nearly a year of use and nothing has fallen off or broken. Suspension as sweet as the day bought Weaknesses: Frame paintwark prone to chipping by flying gravel. Brakes could do with more bite in wet weather. Only one bottle mount a nusiance when using powerful lights Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Duration Product Used: 1 Year Bike Setup: Changed the tires too semis slicks from summer use and it flew. Put some maxxis larsen tt's on for the moment to give better grip in bad weather, they roll faster than the originals from Scott

from London, England Date Reviewed: October 11, 2002 Strengths: Light, responsive. Very quick to accelerate. Hardly any bob especially compared to my old bike. Climbs!! DH fast to. Love it. Weaknesses: Transfers can be damaged easily. Carbon is not a hard material. Short frame life span? (But would not miss the fun I`d had so far!!) Put alot of Pace Carbon armour on the frame to protect from mud cable wear. The seat post seat clamp even though wound up so tight it could go BANG! still allows saddle movement if sat on harshly. They will replace, but not upgrade. My next purchase change. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Epping Forest, Coed-y-Bremin Duration Product Used: 6 months Price Paid: $3220.00 Purchased At: YHA Similar Products Used: None except my previous bike, a Voodoo Zeebop - full suspension unified rear triangle. Bike Setup: Standard except for Pace EvoIII forks, Hope Mini disks (Great!!), FSA Orbit extreme headset, Easton EC90 flat bars with mini ends (Get thru the narrow trees!). Came with Rockshox Duke XC forks (heavy).

from Hereford UK Date Reviewed: August 19, 2002 Strengths: Very light weight. Active suspension aids cornering. Got to spin to stop suspension bounce then you can really notice the secenary moving. Weaknesses: Horrid creaking came from the rear suspension after some nasty wet muddy riding. Sorted by stripping /cleaning/lubing the shok pivots and suspension joint. It is an XC bike so dont DH or jump it too hard!!!! Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Forest of Dean or any hill Duration Product Used: 6 months Price Paid: $3400.00 Purchased At: Revolutions UK Similar Products Used: Giant MCMD980, Orange, Univega Ram..... Bike Setup: Standard but improved leavers and Xlite post.

from germany Date Reviewed: June 27, 2002 Strengths: Good Suspension, lightweight, fast, stiff enough for me (67 kilos). This bike is driving like heaven, specially on single trails. Lockout? Why, when the suspension works even uphill. Weaknesses: Be aware of the lacquer of polished frames. Mine looked terrible after 2 years. As there's only 1 year of warrenty I was lucky to get a new one. So just buy a coloured frame even if silver looks great! Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: XC Duration Product Used: 2 Years Price Paid: $1000.00 Purchased At: germany/ffm Similar Products Used: Cannondale V2000 - even if this bike will last two lives, it's not as fast as the G-zero Bike Setup: Custom. XT/XTR, Tune Wheels/Seatpost/Cranks, Rock Shox SID, Magura HS33 (Best break of all times!!!), Syntace stem/bar, under 10,5 kilos
