Pros: Great kit for the money! As a mechanic at a Diamondback dealer I've built one along with other Sorties. They are such a great value for the money. You get a fox float 15qr with rebound and compression adjust and threshold adjust. You get high end mavic or now for MY11 XTR wheels. The knuckle box is extremely supple and keeps the rear end firmly planted.

Cons: I'm not a fan of the current color scheme. Also I'm a SRAM man but the new XTR is looking promising.

Recommendation: A great 5inch race/trail bike that can compete with much pricier bikes like the Ibis Mojo!
