Love mine – I got it as an ex-Orange Demo bike so it was a bit of a bargain at the time.
I’ve had it for about 18 months now and done all sorts of riding. For the Alps and big Scottish or Lakeland days out I’ll go for something with more travel, bigger tyres and slacker angles. However for local rides, big pedally days out, multi-day rides and trail centres it’s a really fun bike. Even when the going gets rough the big wheels carry speed well – it’s only on really nasty sustained stuff that it gets into trouble.
A couple of other threads to look at …
