The Rize is the Swiss Army knife of the trail bike world. It's a bike that brings all-new metalforming technology to the industry, and combines it with carbon-fiber fabrication techniques. It uses a dreamy-riding multi-pivot suspension with 130mm of balanced travel. The means that riders can use it as a do-it-all rig, whether you're riding notoriously gnarly rock gardens in

The Rize is the Swiss Army knife of the trail bike world. It's a bike that brings all-new metalforming technology to the industry, and combines it with carbon-fiber fabrication techniques. It uses a dreamy-riding multi-pivot suspension with 130mm of balanced travel. The means that riders can use it as a do-it-all rig, whether you're riding notoriously gnarly rock gardens in
the Northeast or the gently rolling foothills of the inter-mountain West.

Pros
Light with great handling. Its descending prowess is excellent. Good mix of components for the money, especially brakes and hubs/wheels.
Cons
The Lefty outclasses the rear suspension in rough terrain. Wire bead tires on a $3000 bike? Com'on!
Review
Overall this is what C'dale says it is, a do it all bike. It is extremely efficient with propedal and decends like it has another inch of travel. Very capable for most riders' demands but efficient enough to race XC. This was a great buy for me!
