Lightweight, firm-riding trail hardtail that’s still fun to ride while you upgrade. Buy if you want a fun, upgradable trail bike
Modern-shaped, lightweight and stiff 29er trail frame in a wide range of sizes
Overall ride is still purposeful and enjoyable despite component compromises
A wider bar and better tyres would improve trail confidence significantly
Heavy and basic steel-spring and straight-steerer fork is ripe for upgrading too
