are u kidding me trailchef look at guys riding teh scott ransom carbons up whistler carbon can be very strong some companys just suck with tehre process i bet this bike will withstand alot more then u think. and it would be good to see an alluminum version to make it a bit more affordable for people.

crack'n fail, nuff said. i ride at any temp up to -25 C. carbon turns to glass in the cold.never buy the first year of something radically different.

How does it look heavy its carbon obviously they have to beef it up a bit i bet this thing rides so nice the second there on the market im getting one.

cannondale frames are not a piece of shit crowe have you even walked through one of their factories? they test these frames pretty hard so shut ur mouth

i know! it says it weights 30 lbs...how is that heavy?
that's how much my old xc bike weighed lol

its a single pivot and yes tehre is a point to the "crazy linkage" look at teh judge with the scissor link its staged travel i bet this bike will be the same. look at the demo bikes there linkage is more f*cked up then this.

Demo's FSR is in no ways "f*cked up," it's perfect.

Huh, didn't even accurr to me that it's carbon, I thought it was aluminum! LOL

I had a Prophet and it launched my riding to new levels. I outgrew it cuz of the flexy rear. This looks like they addressed that....too bad it's not better looking (paintjob aside)

check out the moto carbon 2 its is one of the most gorgeous bikes ever!

trailchef (Feb 23, 2008 at 22:20)

carbon frames don't belong on anything that leaves a groomed xc trail,think tou will ever see Simmons riding anything like that on the shore? All style, no substance. don't waste your $.

planekid (Feb 23, 2008 at 22:05)

id like to see an allloy version

jptothetree (Feb 24, 2008 at 19:00)

There's no point to having that many pivots and or all that crazy linkage...

seraph (May 10, 2008 at 9:33)

Looks like a Marin Quad XLT. Too bad...

slopes0and0style (Feb 23, 2008 at 8:57)

yamahammer (Feb 23, 2008 at 16:49)

that is reely light

badpotato (Feb 24, 2008 at 0:19)

Doesn't it look like a prophet/gemini with extra link?
Big news huh?!

specializederic (Feb 24, 2008 at 16:01)

jonkeast (Feb 23, 2008 at 8:08)

dirtjackson (Feb 25, 2008 at 19:03)

dirtjackson (Feb 25, 2008 at 19:04)
