Duration Product Used:
Tested or demo'ed only
Price Paid:

Purchased At:
Highland Cycles Inverness.
Strengths:
What a Frame.Lightweight and very strong.Beautiful finish in the paint.Good Overall spec for an aggressive crosscountry setup.
Weaknesses:
There arent many,although i would prefer if the front forks were slightly smaller.At the moment i have 150mm Drop Off's.
Bottom Line:
It is the perfect bike for real aggressive crosscountry or freeride.One of the best hardtails out there,probably the best in its game.It was difficult for myself to decide upon a few bikes,Including Kona Coiler,Dawg and a couple of other models and manufacturers.But i figured that they are all semi decent full sussers.So Why not get a flawless hardtail,which is top of the range,and can do exactly the same ,maybe even better than a full suss.This bike is true quality,and is a specialised piece of machinery .:) I am very pleased with this bike,well done Orange Bikes,UK.
