good/ bad points??
Got one as any entry into 29ers as I wasn't sure and also wanted a commute bike for my off road route to work.
In short I love it and often take it out over my SC Heckler.
great over long distances and very comfortable and rips on singletrack.
problems for me are: only 2 frame sizes (I got 18" and it can feel a little large sometimes
the fork needs regular TLC or it throws a hissy fit, and the pressures I run are a lot lower than other forks to get full travel.
the gears are rubbish, but I upgraded to full SLX so its no longer a problem.
I think I must have now racked up over 500 miles of off road riding on mine and its still looks good and feels great
thanks
A well regard purchase, sign up for Halford emails and wait for one of the regular 10% online half day sales, bleedin bargain. I'd want to replace the forks, but reports suggest that they're hardly rubbish.
