wepat Posted June 28, 2014 Posted June 28, 2014 Hi Hubbers, I ride a 2013 Giant Anthem X1 alloy) with quite a few upgrades namely brakes and wheelset. Been offered a good deal on a Camber Comp Carbon 2014 and will give my bike to wifey. Questions I ride Tokai 3-4 times a week and 4 stage rides/races a yearI enjoy both singletrack and XC Is it better than my Giant ??What's the reliability on the Camber like? The Camber is new for R29K

wepat Posted July 12, 2014 Author Posted July 12, 2014 ok rode Tokai today would say climbs and flats same as Anthem, maybe the Giant a little quicker but on the single track and downs no comparison bike is nimble, light and quick. The bike has a very short stem I may look to get a longer one any thoughts by other owners also bike is super quiet with the T shadow RD I also have XT brakes and ZTR Crest with Hope EVO the Formula brakes gave to wifey plus wheels glad tried her bike and brakes are nowhere close to XT. Also got the white and black colour combo as could not get a black quite glad with this colour
