 Hello,
if you will do some small research, you can get, that this bike was made for Whistler, the original purpose should been like indestructible rental FR bike Smile But NEW operator sent it into past. So good is, that this bike has stays like legendary Kona Stinky, it means really tough and stiff.. and also they are short, as you can see on the picture, it means that the balance point is under balance point of your body = easy to handle and control during a jumps. And additionally the geometry is with still good for pedaling up. I tested it on the north shore and I have to say that I didn't believe that one chairing 32T is enough for my climbing style Big Grin But yes.. it works.. And also this bike is equipped by Marzocchi Bomber 66 ETA fork. This is legendary butter smooth fork for FR rides, easy to maintain and really reliable, I love it, because is the last Italian made and brand NEW.. And in comparison with operator, the seat post tube goes whole way down, so you can use long seat post..
I tried just little bit to ride it on dirt yard and I have to say that even thought the weight is little bit higher because it is FR tank, it is still playable for short jumps..
