My 03 monty absolutly pwned on natural! Weird thing is I don't know why. I had a da-bomb pro and when I changed to the monty it felt pretty similar to ride, but when I was riding it was wayy out-performing it. Its very flicky and really easy to re-position on rocks, only thing you could moan about is the long seat tube, but to be honest that doesn't really hinder a great deal of tuckage Monty 4tw!
