Everything seems great on it. I'd just ride it until something brakes or wares out before replacing anything on that.

Thanks for that.

I knew fox was good and the xt stuff,but main concern was magura brakes.

The forks of magura look the part but everyone goes on about shimano and sram and avid brakes not magura

Thanks again

I haven't heard alot about Magura brakes either but I have never seen people complaining about them either which can only be good.

is it just me or is the rear shock upside down??

I dont know is it.

This is a first for me with the following:

Hydro brakes and full susser

So dont know really what is what.

Thanks for looking at this guys.. For me with 2 kids and a mortage £1000.00 is a lot to spend if i dont get it right.

Last bike was a scott reflex 40.

Thanks again

I was looking at one of these but have upped my budget since.

I'm convinced that as long as this bike rides right in the reviews it must be bike of the year. The spec is frankly amazing for the money - I think someone on here added up the cost of just the components and they came to more than the bike itself!

Wiggle do a no quibble return - obviously you can't go off-roading and expect to return it. By all means, buy one and at least you can blast about on the streets, if it feels wrong, send it back!

There's a german review of it on the net - I tried to translate it with my highly limited german skills - basically it's a wicked bike, great value but may feel slightly racey for some. Tbh this could be fixed with a shorter/higher stem...

Yep but it doesn't matter at all.

Im pretty sure they would not put the shock upside down? would they.

And if so probably would not make a difference, considering the reviews.

and another thing i was worried about was the laid back seat, as i like to be more forward when riding as not using the bike for racing. but a curved seat post should do the trick or a bit of playing with the old alan key.

Hopefully

Makes no difference which way shock is mounted from a performance point of view - however it may make the valves and adjusters more accessible.
