sure, its a very very sturdy and heavy frame, but in the handling dept they are better suited for jumping and hucking off stuff that actual trail usage, they dont turn very well, at least mine doesnt, and its basically stock
Really? I'm the fastest one my local trails with my alu Monocog Flight (which is much lighter than the steel version) and I've got no real issues with how it handles. Lately, I've been riding the same loop over and over, and I'm getting really fast around it and I feel quite comfortable on my Monocog. But I've never owned another MTB (plenty of BMX and road bikes), so maybe I just don't know what to expect.
