Looking at getting one to add to my steel hardtail and short travel XC bike though c2w scheme. Will prob end up using steel hardtail for work and getting rid of Roadrat with the Spesh becoming main bike.
Any thoughts on it? 80mm travel Rebas seem a bit retro but the bike seems a good deal on the whole. Looked at Giant XTC 2 also but the Spesh seems favourite at the moment.
Any info appreciated.
Ive ridden our demo one a few times, very quick bike and very light for a sub 1k machine. Pretty sure the Reba's come as standard at 100mm, if you can live with the colour then you wont really go wrong. Bars are also a billion times better than any of the other 09 RH's which usually require an immediate upgrade.
Cheers v10, on closer look at the site it does say:-
RockShox Reba SL [b]80mm, 100mm alloy steerer,[/b] magnesium lowers, air spring, external rebound and LO
I think i misread it or their commas are out of place. Having realised that they can be 80 OR 100mm, it starts to seem even better. I dont mind the colour... prob the least offensive in the garage now!
