    ooo let me know how you get on!

    Have been spying these in my LBS as a mid range bike between the XC boardman and big rig Canyon.

    Really lovely machines!

    well, we weighed it with the pedals ON and it came to 27lbs.. so not bad..

    It's my first full susser, so I can't really comment in comparison..

    but after a 3 hour maiden voyage yesterday its incredbly chuckable in the corners and very confidence inspiring..

    Really quick too.. The XT groupset really makes a difference... Got some dirty looks from a couple of roadies when I steamed past em! lol

    My idea was to use this on the trail centres and try some gravity enduros...

    But i'm gunna race it xc over my hardtail.. although it's heavier, it rides and feels light when your on it..

    The rp23 shock is the bees knees aswell! :)

    I just need to break the saddle in... OUCH!
