I love love love mine.
It’s been my only bike for 2 years, during which time I’ve used it for 24 hour XC races, Gravity Enduros, 5 weeks of Alpine destruction, Megavalanche and the Endurance DH at Fort William, as well as all day moorland slogs, big Scottish mountains, trail centres, BMX tracks and lots of steep lovelyness at home in Calderdale.
It is the most versatile, best handling and most all-out grin inducing bike I know of. Bit of a hefty lump, but that doesn’t bother me.
140mm forks, 1×10, big brakes, a short stem and wound-in wheelbase for maximum radness.
I’d say it’s a bike that rewards steeper terrain and a fairly skilled rider. As others have said it really comes alive when you drop the saddle a bit and get stuck in.
