Got one of these awhile back after coming off a 26″ carbon bike and wow, what
a difference. I have almost the same build spec as this review and its
incredible how fast this bike is both up and down the hill. The only thing
that is a bit of a downside is the longer wheelbase which makes really tight
switchbacks a bit of a handful. Not too bad really and a very small price to
pay how awesome everything else is. Anyone who says that 29ers aren't playful
or fun in the air hasn't ridden this bike. It's stellar, and paired with the
pike/1×11 its unbeatable for someone who likes to climb and descend fast.
