there a many alternatives that are as good if not better than a nomad. dont forget you pay a premium just for the SC logo.

The trek scratch air has 7 inches of rear travel, an its a trail bike. Its the only one I know of. I don't think your going to find many 7 inch trail bikes though. Most seem to be 6.

If you compare them to other bikes in the price range they're actually pretty reasonably priced.

I thought the same as you until i looked into it more.

Nobody said it is, i wouldnt race downhill on one.

But if you're looking for an aggressive AM bike it's One of the best out there.
