Mtbr: "4.9 out of 5.0" El Saltamontes Frameset: https://www.mtbr.com/product/bikes/frameset/ventana/el-saltamontes.html 2. Mtbr: Full Frame Suspension El Saltamontes: "t just does anything very smothly. Corners are easy, jumps are soft. I used to be a little scared of tall jumps, but now they are funny and pleasurous. And I pedal about 3 inches higher than any other biker. https://www.mtbr.com/product/bikes/xc-suspensio/ventana/el-saltamontes.html Dirt Rag: "light enough to race, relaxed enough to ride all day and able to handle dicey terrain. Geometry is slightly relaxed by XC standards: 70.5° head angle, 600mm top tube, 1,087mm wheelbase, 13.2” BB height. It is also bright orange. And the paint and welds are better than what is on your bike." https://dirtragmag.com/review-ventana-el-saltamontes/ 3. Adrenaline Bikes: 2018 El Saltamontes "Frame Only": $2095. Local Pick up.
