Yeah, having fun on mine (although not so much on rooty/rocky stuff!). My arms/wrists ache after about 1.5 hours but I only bought it for local rides. Only mod so far is to change the front tyre to a Hans Dampf 2.35 (the XKing it comes with is actually grippier than I expected but wanted something with a bit more volume and still not convinced the XKing will grip well when leaned over). Still need to look into setting it up tubeless as well, seems fine though http://forums.mtbr.com/salsa/alex-xd-comp-29er-rim-tubeless-fargo-el-mar-772568.html (it comes with Alex XD rims). They're over-priced for what they are though IMO, I'm just abusing c2w for mine.
