These look very interesting. How easy is the front end to loft? My Kona Howler is loads of fun cos it's easy to get the front in the air, my Prophet is less fun in this way as it's more difficult. So, how does it compare with other bikes you've had at getting the front end up and launching off stuff and that?

Forgot to ask - anyone put a coil shock on theirs? How is it? Just want to check the spring rate isn't designed too specifically around an air shock like some frames.

Lots of info on MTBR, and I'm pretty sure it's air shock specific (falling rate linkage), which is a shame.

Chunky - just doing my speculation for now, but yes. Consolidating down to razzer and a hardtail in the next few months.

The new Cannondale Jekyll looks good.
