Date Reviewed: May 26, 2008 | | Favorite Trail: | Porcupine Rim | | Duration Product Used: | Less than 1 month | | Purchased At: | right from the source | | Strengths: | Nice anodized finish. Comes disassembled, but it took 10 minutes to put together. Everything lined up perfect and functioned with the smoothness of butter running off of a hot biscuit. Should you need to replace bearings down the road, they are common sizes any LBS should stock. Build quality is very nice and totally what you'd expect at this price level. | | Weaknesses: | I haven't really found any worth noting. At first I though the front derailleur angle was a bit odd due to the way the seat tube bends, but it seems to shift fine. | | Similar Products Used: | I've ridden a lot of different bikes over the last 15 years | | Bike Setup: | Fox DHX 5.0, Rock Shox Totem coil, SRAM drivetrain, Azonic wheels, Gravity Gap cranks and stem, Protaper bars, Avid Code brakes | | Bottom Line: | I've used this bike so far for anything from cruising local trail rides to some bomber shuttle runs down rocky, loose gravelly power lines. I've had it about a month. So far the ride quality is just short of magical. It's like half of the travel is not even there until you need it. The way this frame pedals and accellerates is phenomenal, there's very little feedback from the drivetrain. Standing or sitting, 32 or 22 ring, it puts power to the rear wheel like no other bike I've had.

Date Reviewed: May 8, 2008 | | Favorite Trail: | No Joke-Goats Gully-Freight Train-Dirt Merchant-A-Line | | Duration Product Used: | Less than 1 month | | Purchased At: | Go Ride | | Strengths: | Build Quality, Looks, Frame Stiffness, Bump Eating Love, Pedaling Efficiency, Local Boys.
| | Weaknesses: | No Major Complaints.
I would prefer the ability to lower the seat at least another 1-2 inches for a little more room. The seatpost can drop 4 inches | | Similar Products Used: | Yeti ASX, Transition Bottle Rocket, Intense 6.6, | | Bike Setup: | Can Diggle w/ DHX 5.0, Zoke 66 SL1, Hadley w/ 823s, Gravity Lite 170mm, X9-XO, Thomson Seatpost and Stem | | Bottom Line: | This is a 7-8 beauty. I am very happy with how well this bike pedals in both the 34 and 22 tooth chainrings. There is very little pedal feedback while climbing.
This thing corners very well and is very stiff with no noticable flex in the rear.
The Can Diggle smoothed out the rocky sections with ease and soaked up any of the drops I had the sack to do.
This is by far my favorite bike | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |
