For the price, I am really impressed! It is a super playful/flickable bike and rides well. It is a little low spec, but for the price you have room to really build it how you want. I rode it completely stock at Whistler and was able to ride anything I wanted. I'm looking at upgrading the suspension and brakes as I think that would make the biggest difference on the bike. But, it rides great stock as well! I think that Airborne really hit it out of the park with this bike especially for the $1750 price tag!

Ya, it would be cool to build it from the frameset. This guy has a pretty sweet build: m.vitalmtb.com/community/FuzionTheAce,17886/setup,26020

Awesome video man! Just a question though... The PB review of this brought up the suspension a few times and the brakes. I know brakes wouldn't be an issue as upgrades aren't a worry. But as to suspension, how would higher end suspension fare on this bike? The PB article said it was lacking. Is that the pivot system of the fork and shocks? Would better forks and shocks make it handle through the rough? Also, how well does it peddle? Awesome video!

I ended up putting a RockShox Totem Solo Air on the front and a Vivid Air on the back and it made a huge difference. Because of how the suspension is set up it makes for more of a poppy/playful feel than a full on dh bike which I enjoyed. It wont soak it up quite as well but I will still get the job done. As far as pedaling its not a xc bike but it's not terrible either! I used it to pedal to the top of quite a few of my local trails. Hope that helps!

If you're putting it together in a video editing program make sure to export it in the highest quality. Depending on your program this might take some trial and error or you should try looking it up online. When you're recording make sure that the lens is always clean and to record in high resolution. My favorite is 1080 Superview in 48 or 60 FPS. Hope any of that helps!

Ya, it's great! You can't beat the price! Super playful bike that is at home on the flow trails. It handles well on the tech as well, but I would suggest getting the motion control damper for the Domain fork (costs like $60). It comes with the Domain R which only has rebound adjustment, and lacks any compression adjustment. Same with the rear shock, the Kage R. (I definitely noticed it more in the fork though) It still rides great stock though and for the price you can upgrade whatever seems fit! Rode it 3 days at Whistler completely stock. I'm looking at getting the Motion Control and maybe a Vivid Air rear shock. The brakes aren't going to be as nice as something like Saints, but they did what the were intended for. Great bike, get one!

great video! whistler is amazing.
trebeol, is it possible to upgrade the Kage R like you can with the Domain R fork with motion control, or do you just have to get a whole new rear shock?

*edit* sorry. not a fan of the song though. throw some led zeppelin or old school rock in there.
