#!markdown really? i don't see how this is massively expensive. both frame/shock and complete prices seem competitive with other players at this level (banshee, etc.) i don't know why they switched to horst link but maybe they couldn't get the weight down with their vpp style frames? they were heavy. and if as matthew says they managed a horst link design that pedals/climbs well without boatloads of compression damping or a platform, they may have just turned water into wine! i'd want to see more geo numbers, but this bike would seem pretty standard in its category, plus the added cred of being a cove come on duncan, you can bitch better 😉
