Pros
I bought this bike used for $800 and I LOVE it!! Climbs like a goat and rolls over EVERYTHING! Also love the color..DEVO Blue! Eccentric Bottom bracket too!
Cons
A couple pounds heavier than the aluminum Paragon but a "softer" feel for sure. Worth the trade off to me! Hydraulic brakes would be nice, but the price would have been higher too!
Review
Not a bike for weight weenies but if you ride it, I think you'll like it.
Pros
Quality frame, no flex or reliability issues.
Cons
HT is too steep, handles twitchy with the fork set at 80mm. Frame is heavy. Too many bonty components.
Review
Not a bad bike for all around trail riding. Rough and technical trails will overwhelm the bike. With some component upgrades, I got my XL down to 27.5 lbs.
