Glad to see this review and hoping they throw you the neuron as well as I think it is also a better trail bike geometry, though clearly the recent articles suggest that even for some doing less aggressive ascents descents they do still prefer the geometry of steep sta.
Anyway, wondering if you can comment on whether these bikes ship from Canada and therefore our expectations on the extra 13% duty when they arrive vs just GST/pst and whether one \*has to\* pay for velofix or can out it together themselves? If you're running 13% duty, about 13% tax AND an extra 100 for assembly that price tag quickly looks less appetizing. Then it is just a question of availability (like all brands, though there's are going into July on website I think)
