Great review. Really, really fair evaluation of the high and lowlights of this bike. Best line of the review: "Our own Cooper Quinn should be coated in TriFlow & Feathers for even suggesting the term 'Shore Country'". I actually laughed out loud at that, especially knowing how you feel about TriFlow. Interesting how conditions really exposed weaknesses of this bike. The shore is so interesting in that you can ride there in the wet. When it rains here in Edmonton the trails are essentially unrideable as it's all this clay based soil that triples the size of your tires in a nanosecond and is slicker than greased silicone. Sounds like this bike would absolutely scream on the trails here in Edmonton, but might not be enough to compensate for my lack of skills if I took it on a trip to BC.
