Strengths:
The frame can take a beating. The frame is also well balanced.
Weaknesses:
The shock makes the bike little heavier than a hard tail but still lighter then most.
Bike Setup:
The setup isn't the best because the rims are not disc compatiable but don't let that stop you! Can always change the rims and put discs on.
Bottom Line:
The bike is well worth the money for a full suspension bike because the ride is something great!
