Pros
Decent components for $1000. Frame is about as strong as I have ever seen. (tipping the scales at 240 lbs that is what I am looking for)
 
Cons
Fork is a little on the soft side with factory settings. Add a couple psi and I will try it again.
 
Review
Great all around bike for beating on if you are a bigger guy.

Pros
Tough frame, decent climber
 
Cons
Pedals, seat
 
Review
This bike has potential with just a couple upgrades. I upgraded pedals to xpedo mx-35's and the seat to a cloud 9 and now I will just replace with upgrades as I crash and break stuff. Fun bike overall just remember it's not a DH or FR competitive.

Pros
This thing is a tank High quality components Pedals are huge (great for guys with big feet) crank is very stout very well ballanced
 
Cons
Derailer smacks the bottom of the frame when you land It's a little heavy
 
Review
I've just purchased it and I've gone from a 10 year old bike to this one so I'm going to be impressed but beyond that, it feels like a really solid quality bike and I tested a few. I would also say if you're a bigger guy, this is the bike you want.
