Cons: Expensive and perhaps a little too light. Heavier full suspension bikes seem to hug the ground a little tighter, especially on washboard sections.
Recommendation: Buy it if you can afford it. This is a serious cross country bike with all the bells and whistles and if you trick it out with high end components you really can't get a better bike.
