Add a review (form opens in right column) reviewed by Shmoo   on April 5, 2008   Pros Light. Great brakes. Great steering response. Great front fork. Great geometry. Cons Nothing really (yet). Did snap the chain, but was shifting under heavy load. Verdict I believe this website listed the '07 model, or got some of the specs wrong. My 08 has Juicy 5's, and didn't come with any pedals (other than the flats). The bike climbs great, great front end response and even as a ht, the rear end responds well, predictable.
