I hope I am not going to regret this, but I just bought one, good reviews for the 160, what could possibly go wrong, any opinions.

Yup - got a 140 Race in carbon flavour

I only got it just before Xmas so I've had limited saddle time so far and a lot of it has been in pretty rotten conditions.

Overall impression is positive though, it's my first 29er and feels a lot quicker than my old Anthem. Need to play with the shock settings though, I'm getting a lot of pedal strikes in 'descend' mode so think I'm running it too soft. Plus it nearly bounced me over the bars at the jump gulley at Swinley a couple of weeks ago, so think I've got the rebound set too fast!

pretty much all the stereo's are sold out before they have hit the shops, demand has been huge.
we've had the hpa pro in the shop and its really nice, its owner is very happy with it.

It looks like it's trying to be an Ellsworth...

I've had the 29er 140 for some while. More bike than I'll ever need, in every respect. It's brilliant at everything.
