I was wondering if there were any owners out there with a 2007 major jake. I'm new to cyclocross, i mainly ride XC mountain bikes but i wanted to ride some of my favorite trails with a cross bike in addition to anything else. I found what i think is a good deal on a 2007 Orange Crush Major Jake for $1350. I'm not familiar with the types of abuse the EC90 carbon seat stay and the Easton EC90X Carbon fork can take. The types of trails im planning to take it on are all smooth rolling single track. Never had a carbon bike so i'm not sure if i'll end up shattering anything if i ride it too hard.
