Pros: my first dual suspension bike and i'm loving it so far, good suspension without much in the way of pedal bob and great gears and brakes. grips well with the kenda excavator tyres. has given me a lot more confidence.
Cons: underside water bottle mount means i have to take my camelbak even on short rides if i want a drink, otherwise dirty bottle. not much in the way of seat height adjustment.
Recommendation: a great bike for the price, as it was last years model i got it for just above half its original price, thoroughly pleased so far.
