If you've ridden or a riding one, what do you think of it?

Thanks

Friend rides with one all the time. Loves it. Goes down well and seems pretty strong. He suffers with clearance on that hanging bottom link and when the rocks get crazy he can't follow me through places I have no problems with on my much lower Orbea Rallon. A few friends have the 29" and also love them, seriously fast and capable. Both have broken the shock linkage. Both replaced very quickly under warranty. I haven't ridden with the 29 guys for a while but ride with the 275 guy a lot. Like I say, loves it apart from when it gets very steep or rough.
It's quite a small bike. He rides a medium and would normally be a small. I'm felt that the medium was tiny and I normally ride mediums.
