Pros
The FSR suspension coupled with Specialized Brain Techology. Add a reba front fork and you have a great riding bike that climbs and accelerates great. The components are the best I have ever owned.
Cons
Changed out to a Carbon Bar. Everything else is GREAT
Review
I have been riding this ride for about a year now. I wasn;t sure about 29er's and all the hype etc.. I am a big guy 6'5" 210lbs and this bike fits me SOOOO much better than any 26" wheeled bike ever has. It handles like a dream. It is tough and rugged bike, I am not the best bike handler in the world so I tend to crash a bit in the technical stuff from trying to go to fast or doing more than I am prepared for. This bike has taken a beating and just keeps on going. The comopnent group (Sram X-0/9 with XTR Cranks) is rock solid. I have never had a better shifting bike.
