The Highball has been the ideal hardtail for the type of riding I like to do and, while it's not 100 per cent perfect, I’ve loved every minute riding it
Contemporary cross-country geometry and an external bottom bracket make the Highball CC a treat to ride
The water ingress into the frame is annoying
