Looks quite a change from the old one, bit longer, slacker, nice kit...
Currently have a 2015 SX and pondering...
Guess you've not read the latest issue then?
Aha, just picked it up from the coffee table for first time and opened at page 76....
......well that's a pretty convincing read !
Interesting the new ones come with 125mm dropper in medium (according to that article). My current one has a 100mm dropper and I don't have enough collar showing to get anything over about 115 in there. Maybe seat tube is a bit shorter on new version ? I guess would be an easy swop at dealer though..
Very tempting...
Well having read all the reviews it's this or a Flare. Similar spec, Flare a bit heavier and slight more downhill orientated. Similar RRP though LBS discount on Giant makes it best part of £800 less.....
Will try get some feedback and demo's. Thoughts and opinions welcome !
I shall be waiting for the new 29er version which is due in the spring!

Ah, I am firmly in smaller wheel, short arse camp 😀
Thanks to that STW test article I have taken advantage of the LBS 20% sale and ordered one 😀
