+1 and i've 'clicked' with it better than the 2011 Cube Stereo I bought then sold and better than the 2011 Runblefish 2 29er I bought then sold
Twelve50 cycles in Frodsham have a 2012 314 in the shop now, Ric or Matt will look after you, great shop to say the least

Lovely, much prefer the 2012 paintwork and graphics, that's my only very minor gripe about my 2010 514, pretty amazing bikes. Enjoy.
A reverb would look nice on that

They are so good at climbing.

Very nice looking bike, love the new colours for 2012. I've got a 2011 514, which I like...a lot!! Sounds like the 2012 geometry changes on the Zesty's haven't killed thier climbing efficiency(?) - I've been amazed with my 514; on a recent holiday my wife borrowed my 514 and I was riding my sub-25lb Anthem X. The Zesty repeatedly dropped the Anthem X on the off-road climbs - to try and even things up I fitted Minions F&R to the Zesty, and let 'em down to 18psi
, then put a Small Block 8 on the rear of the Anthem and ran my tyres at about 25 to 28psi (tubeless) - The Zesty still dropped it on climbs!! 'Cos I couldn't believe it, we even swapped bikes and sessioned some climbs, and the Zesty was definately easier to propel up stuff - and descending...well, I'm sure you know arggh..I'l stop enthusing! Enjoy your bike
