Pros
All good so far, had this for almost 3 weeks. Climbs like a mule stock kenda nevegal stick well in mud and most all terrain ( a little week in gravel, arent they all) brakes are strong and have plenty of stopping power, already went over the handlebars a few times. Suspensions does a nice job of soaking up what I throw at it. Seat works for me.
Cons
Having a bit of trouble getting the front derailleur dialed in other than that this is a great one
Review

Pros
maestro link is exellent no bobing
great xc handling 6" travel more than
enough even for bigger jumps.
i tested trek fuel ex8, specialized fsr,
i liked the reign 2 the best, and the price
from my local bike shop $1500 out the door was a good deal.
Cons
none so far.... after riding it for 3 month.
