| Duration Product Used: | Tested or demo'ed only |
| Purchased At: | Big Swingin' Cycles |
| Strengths: | This is a comfortable bike. It chews up rough trail and could easily support all-day riding. The shocks are very adjustable and the lockout/pro-pedal features work well too. |
| Weaknesses: | For the price (and considering it's carbon) the bike's not that light. For a moderately racy bike, the steering's pretty slow. It's not a bike you can throw into tight twisties. It's more a go where it's pointed type machine. |
| Similar Products Tried: | Giant Anthem. |
| Bike Setup: | Stock, with Candy pedals. |
| Bottom Line: | More of a trail bike than a race bike (which is how it's pitched, sort of). It's a pretty good bike, but it's not for me. Great shock and fork, though. Buy it: If you want a trail bike and you do occasional 8- or 24-hour races. Don't buy it: If you are looking for a real cross-country race bike or you ride a lot of tight, twisty singletrack. |
