Darren (guy I ride with) has one, and it's a lovely bike. Changed the gearing by a tooth or so I think, and had a few problems with the rear wheel, although that was down to knocks rather than parts problems, so he now runs a Try-All on Profile (also just died ) De-stickered it soon as he got it, then changed to a Magura Julie up front, which he absolutely loves! Few issues with the rear Maggie, but that's not to do with the bike as a whole, just something weird with his bleeds I believe All in all he completely loves the bike I think, and I know he'd recommend it, but as said before, it's complete only so if you are after just the frame you may have some problems
