Ellsworth Epiphany Reviews
Description: (
from ellsworthbikes.com)
The Epiphany has the distinction of being the most popular we have built and with a few small refinements, the award winning bike will be very similar to the original design with a few top secret design modifications. As the lightest 5.25" travel bike in the world, the Epiphany offers a little bit more relaxed
geometry coupled with additional travel without any weight penalty. With its selection as Outside Magazine's Mt Bike of the Year, it seems that others agree.
Reviews
Pros
Solid feel yet smooth as silk over rough stuff. Accelerates and corners like a Fly, and zero pedal bob. Built with sram xo components and stans wheels it is a featherweight @25lbs and by far the best bike I ever rode coming off a trek fuel and testing many others before getting a sst epiphany, and in my eyes there is no better out there.
Cons
The price is a bit steep. But in this case you do get what you pay for. CLASS!
Review
Unbeatable even at it's high price. Fly's uphill floats down.
Pros
Always there when you need it, smooth almost supple bump absorption, light and as fast as anything. The ICT design works so well that it's hard to know whether or not the RP 23 needs to be locked out, have time to myself with and without and don't notice much difference. Made in America, sounds trite but in this economy of ours–this should be important to everyone. Always gets noticed on the trail, and my 2008 is good as new after more thank 6000 miles. Still love getting on this bicycle.
Cons
Hard to quantify without mentioning price, because no one likes to spend a lot of money unless they have to. Had to have this one!
Review
Remarkable product from a remarkable company, that seems to be getting better and better.

Review
just bought this as a 2010 model. I rode several alternatives in the price range and this was my favorite hands down. Goes down like a true dh bike but goes up easy as well. amazing what this bike will do.
