General complaint is a very squirelly rear end. It has very little lateral stiffness which irratates everyone I know who has one. A good trail bike but not much beyond that.

The bike has and ok fork, and the rear shock is ok but it tops out too much. Even with the rebaound set up slow, there is a clunk as the shock decompresses fully. The bik is ok if you're just starting out and want a little more than a hardtail but if you are serious, get something else.
