Strengths: Excellent and solidly built downhill bike that has allowed me to traverse some of the tuffest terrain around. Quality workmenship, design and ride quality. NO issues with any major components despite many hard rides over the years.Weaknesses: Heavy, even for a downhill in my book. This may also be a necessary evil in order to make this Bike as hardy as it is.Bottom Line: You get what you pay for when it comes to downhill rides. Buy crap, and it will ride and roll like crap. Buy something well designed and Manf. and it will last you for years literally.

Strengths: Super strong, super adjustable and the ultimate plush ride.Weaknesses: The plush suspension takes a little getting used to. Gives you the feeling it is indestructible! Could be lighter.Bottom Line: I agree with Len. Excellent quality, the best bike I've ever owned. Simply fantastic in the rough stuff. The feel of a high performance motocross bike. Seems to keep asking for more, and killer looks to back it up. I always get positive comments on the bike, even by people I see all time.
