The stand-out bike of this last year, it seems…..

anyone got views on the 2013 models? still good value for money, or have they cashed in on their success? considering a 29er at a reasonable price point (through given the number of times I’ve ridden this year, a penny fathing would also be an option :-()

I love my 2012 model, looks like the spec is slightl lower, not sure about the prices.

I much prefer the paint scheme on mine.

seems like they’re not generating the buzz like they did last year then!

They seem to have expanded the alloy frame range of 29ers. Now have a LTD family and a Reaction family ( which was carbon only last year I think )

I’m looking to get the LTD sl 29er in anodised black this year. Meets my balance of budget and spec. Was advised away from the lighter coloured matt finishes of some frames due to them being more difficult to keep clean compared to the gloss or anodised.

I think the buzz from last year was that they were such a surprise hit and that sold out so quick. No reason why they cant be just as good a bike this year.
