Date Reviewed: August 5, 2008
Favorite Trail:Any XC singletrack
Duration Product Used:Tested or demo'ed only
Purchased At:MTBR Staff
Strengths:Weight, travel, on-the-fly front shock lock-out, handling and balanced climber/descender. Great mix of components that worked pretty well.
Weaknesses:Only problem I encountered during the 3 days at Downieville was a tight link in the chain which caused some shifting problems until I figured it out. A little pricey for a Fuji? Time will tell...
Similar Products Used:Klein Palamino Team.
Bike Setup:Stock
Bottom Line:Perfect bike for the likes of Downieville's different trails. The Fuji's geometry handled the swooping groomed singletrack and switchbacks as smoothly as any bike I've ridden. The 5 inches of travel allowed me to bomb the rocky drops, roots and fireroads with confidence. Climbed everything as nimbly as a mountain goat. The front lock-out allowed out-of-the-saddle hammering on the steeps without the usual energy loss of typical front suspension. The hydraulic brakes worked well, but I didn't get the noise that others have complained about.

Bottom Line:This bike is sexy. Works very well, is very light for a 5 inch travel bike. Kinda on the expensive side but its well worth it. First real ride on it was a 12 hour race and it handled it like a champ and took everything i could throw at it. Very highly reccomended!!
