Hey! I got one of those! Here's a tip: Buy new cranks. The Truvative X-flows they put on the HR are junk. Mine broke after 3 months of moderate riding. I replaced them with some Shimano Alivio cranks just to get back riding, but plan on throwing on some XT cranks if I can slip the $119 by the wife.
Great bike though. I love mine.
(this pic was taken the day the cranks broke, in fact.)
