Pros
I just used the frame.
Strong, no flex, but like every other steel frame, it is heavy at around 6 pounds.

Cons
A little expensive if you buy it knew and I wish they had more color options. Check out ebay for a good deal. The eccentric bottom bracket is a little tough to use.
Review
I built this up myself with my own choice of components so this review is just for the frame. I recommend the frame to someone who is wanting a geared or ss frame who is wanting quality over price. I do not know anything about the bike when it comes pre-built from Rocky Mountain.

Pros
29-inch wheels; decent component mix on the factory build; solid frame.
Cons
Geometry doesn't feel completely refined – don't be surprised to get a little toe rub on tight turns. The bike seemed like it should have been lighter than it felt.
Review
A solid early attempt at a hardtail 29er by Rocky Mountain, though there are much better bikes to consider in this category.
