| Pros | This beast is very tough and will take a hard beating & hard hits. I have a race inspired build with 180mm single crown forks instead of the 203mm double crown forks. Feels smooth and relaxed when casually riding the trails and climbs pretty good for its class of MTB. | | Cons | A little heavy in the nose with the stock Marzocchi 888. | | Verdict | I highly recommend this MTB for hardcore FR/DH, especially riders on a tight budget. I do not recommend purchasing for XC unless you lighten some of the weight. All around exceptional MTB! |
