Having owned a Specialized bike for over 10 years now I was not surprised in the slightest that this was a top notch bike. However, up until now I've only ever had their road bikes, but after watching the mountain biking at the Olympics I caught the bug! As with most bikes it took a little while to get the set up just right, but then you wouldn't drive a car without adjusting the seat and mirror, and bikes are just the same! For anyone considering it, the ride is smooth and build quality superb! Well worth a few quid more.
