This is a great value for the money. It comes with top of the line components, such as a SRAM X9 drive train, Fox R rear shock, Manitou R7 fork, and Avid Juicy 5 hydraulic disc brakes. It is relatively light for a full suspension mountain bike (29lbs). This bike handles the rough stuff pretty well, and it climbs great. I can actually climb better on this bike than on my old hardtail. The only complaint is the Avid Juicy front brake caliper leaked a few weeks after I got the bike, but it was repaired under warranty. The paint also seems to chip easily. Overall, though, I am very happy with it and recommend it to anyone looking for full suspension rig.
