This is hands down the best mountain bike I have ever owned. It is light due to its carbon fiber frame at 27 pounds, which makes it extremely nimble and flickable on trails as well as a good climber. This bike is perfect for any ride you may want to go on, whether it be chunky, gnarly trails, or a full day in the saddle exploring peaceful fire roads.
The 150mm/150mm of front and rear suspension travel makes this bike a very capable trail bike, gobbling up all the trail chatter with ease. I am the second owner of this bike, and have owned it since 2021. I have upgraded the brakes, wheels, drivetrain, headset, and dropper post to make this bike the most reliable it can be.
The bike has just had brand new Shimano XT 4 piston hydraulic brakes ($400) installed on it along with brand new Galfer rotors. It has also been freshly serviced at Mike's bikes, with each and every component checked over to insure its new owner will be happy.
My reason for selling is because I am going off to college soon, and need the money. The price is fair and firm. The bike will come with a set of SRAM G2 RSC 4 piston brakes along with an ENVE DH carbon handlebar.
