Great entry level bike, easy to upgrade

This was a fun bike to start with, good quality as delivered. Over the past few years, I've upgraded the fork & headset (Manitou Marvel Expert tapered steerer/Cane Creek) and the drivetrain (Box One 1x11) which really livened it up. Wheelset has held up admirably to my abuse.
