MTB_Roadie Posted July 29, 2011 Share I just bought one about 2 weeks ago....and i love it!! It is light, awesome value for money! Also come with a really good groupset, XT/SLX mixed, love the shock aswell...I immediately changed the saddle as I like my Fizik Arione and cut the handlebar a bit, but overall a great bike, also think it got about a 4.8 out of 5 rating from a bicycle magazine.I also upgraded the tires as it was very thin, but I love the bike!

Doggone Posted July 29, 2011 Share One of the best value for money options available at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel XTR Posted July 29, 2011 Share I don't know what your budget is, and if you can stretch it. But, I've recently taken delivery of a Rocky Mountain, Vertex SE 29r, and I am loving, its a whole lot lighter than the Giant, and generally well specced, but it is a bit more. Initially i too was sold on the XTC, until i got my hands on one of these! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tieffels Posted July 30, 2011 Share Alex Harris shattered the Freedom Challenge record on one of these if that is anything to go by. That said I doubt I'll ever buy a 29er. I also doubt I'll ever buy a Giant or a white Toyota Corolla for that matter. The beauty of personal choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
