Have owned one as shown here + command post, for a couple weeks and a few
easy/moderate rides on the NS and Seymour (7th, Pangor, and similar). At 5'9″
and a 30″ inseam the medium seems like a good fit although I would definitely
be at the low end of the range for fit on this size. Other things equal it
climbs faster and better, smooths out rough stuff going up and down, is better
on roll-overs, and handles better all around than my previous ride (SX Trail)
- of course its about 8 pounds lighter too even with the command post. Its a
fun fun ride for me - but I won't ride anything harder than what I mentioned,
so this is more of a XC rider's view I guess.
