Coming from road biking (yeah, I know) I didn't know much about what to choose for the rough stuff, so was guided by my local cycle shop. This is a bike that inspires confidence and I have yet to push it to its limits. I fitted some CrankBros Mallet DH Race pedals which pair very nicely
Pros Given its size and the fact it's not carbon, this really isn't too heavy - feels very planted on the trails and the wide bars give great feeling of control, even for a novice
Cons It's a lot more capable than I am! Also I now have to wait for the Fox Factory Transfer seatpost to be released, so it matches the fork and shock. Finally the seatpost clamp bolt snapped pretty quickly
It was shocking to realize the difference between this bike and all of the other bikes I have had as I have snapped 3 Santa Cruz LT 2.2s and awaiting yet another replacement. They sent me a carbon nomad 27.5!!??? I already have a Carbon Orbea 29 er hardtail and it was a no brainer for me to opt for the awesome OCCAM
Pros It trounces everything I demo'd regardless of budget.
