I think the sizing chart is off a bit. Make sure to test ride acouple of sizes before making a purchase. REI was kind enough to exchange my bike. FYI. they had a couple of Prophet 600's for $1150 which is a steal. I purchased my prophet 4 for $1700, which is also a great price. Wait for the store wide %15 off sale. REI let me purchase the bike at full price then bring my recpt. back in for the refund.
Pros This is my first Full Susp. bike so everything about it right now is a pro. Hydro breaks work very well. Lefty is cool, I had to purchase a heavier spring though. After the spring replacement the pedal bob was gone. I can sleep through more technical trails because of how easy it is to maneuver, even at high speeds.
Cons started to make a funny noise after second time out. But i am not worried about it, i guess its somewhat normal.
