Price Paid:

Strengths:
Great handling, Stiff, unbelievably strong frame, compliant, breakset AVID BB7 are the best mechanical break you could find on the market... SRAM-X9 shifting is just impressive!!! a lot better than XT.... Smooth ride and very quite! ... I LOVE THIS BIKE...
Weaknesses:
BONTRAGER PARTS (saddle not good, tires and disc are so so!!)
A little too expensive for getting Bontrager parts...
THIS IS THE BEST HARDTAIL BIKE I HAVE EVER RIDDEN!!!
Good feel of the frame!!!
Its steel but don't get fool is light and stiff for any kind of terrain.
