| Pros | Smooth ride. Tackles obstacles with ease. Snappy, responsive feedback. Climbs seem effortless. Sure footed on debris covered trails. | | Cons | None | | Verdict | I feel like this bike is a great buy. I got it for $2300 from the LBS. I felt immediately more balanced and confident on the trail. It grabs the rocks and dirt and just rockets me forward. It is smooth in it's ride and flys over obstacles with ease. It is very responsive and makes it effortless to change lines while blazing down the trail. The Reba fork is solid and not overly bobby. It looks better in person than in pics of it. It looks like the "gold" portions are bright in the pics but in person they are much more subdued and look almost brown, which I think suits the bike better. The components are great and you can tell immediately that specialized knows what they were doing when they made this bike. I considered getting a Gary Fisher Rumblefish I, but am stoked that I went with thei one. Awesome ride, you won't be disappointed! |
