Has dis demon since spring, she replaced a 2013 GU. Feels and rides awsum. Obv the front wheel moves are heaven because of the agressive head angle (73.5). I had a disk brake on the GU (BB7), now with the maggies on the front I dont miss it at all. Lost the modulation obviously, but I had a lot of hard time with gap to fronts etc. The disk just couldn handle them, now its instant stop. All in all the best bike I ever owned, suitable geometry, superb brakes (love the trialtech levers, big up to dose guys) and good weight (8.4kg).
