I seem to remember K2 and maybe Corratec doing a similar thing.Wasn't there an Orbea a few years back that used the same system?
Yep K2 springs immediately to mind since the first time I saw it.I seen to remember K2 and maybe Corratec doing a similar thing.
I don't know, it's grown on me. Would be interested to see some more reviews but there isn't much out there...Dear lord that's ugly...
Yeah my local shop has the XT one in stock now - seriously good value, and if you get a light wheelset it's pretty much similar weight to the Team version!Had the chance to throw a leg over one of these on the weekend, pretty impressive bike.
The locked out 'climb' mode offers little to know movement.
I'd say you will start to see a few of these around the races as word gets out!
Retail price of $4299 for full XT build and full carbon, can't argue with that.
Thankyou Sentoz,What a great bike,
The rear suspension handles all that you can throw at it, soaks up the hits effortlessly like my anthem, but pedals like an epic. The front end feels very light on steep climbs , and i had to shift my body weight noticeably forward to keep it tracking on line. The bike handles tight and twisty like a hardtail with the short wheelbase , but is also stable at high speed on fireroads.
I highly reccommend getting a test ride on one if you can
