Great ride. Climbing and x-country riding are great

I love this bike , there is nothing else to say. Except for the upgrades in the shocks. The rear because I am a big boy and the front because of stiction. My klein climbs like a master. I would recommennd this bike to anyone looking to do full suspension Cross country riding.

Bottom Line:   
This is a great bike. Its has given me the ability to finess the down hills, while still letting me climb in the front of my group. I would definitely recomend this bike to anyone in the market for a fs. In case I forgot to mention its great on single track. Quick and responsive. Five flaming lumps.
