Depends what for really but for racing and xc stuff they are very very good. They're very well made and finished off and I liked mine. The tubes on mine were er "soft" as they are thin which saves weight. Classic geometry really but I had more fun on my Pace RC303 being totally honest as the steerings more relaxed so was easier ride downhill - at least for me. If your thinking of getting one look for something second-hand as they can be had for about £400. I bought my complete ARC for £450 a few years back 🙂

It looks awesome in the flesh, I had a little spin on it but its way to small for me to make an educated report.

But tis B E A UITIFULL

Quite fancying an On One 45g titanium
even built by Van Nicholas, and reviewed as quite possible the best hardtail you can buy! 🙂
