These are super bicycles compared to old ridgid rim brake bikes So there going to be expensive. There are still bikes leading up to $10,000. Can always get a less expensive one and upgrade couple parts or find a nice used one at a fraction of price. I feel like you can have 1 bike that does it all for the most part now. When building up an older one might be good at light trail but break if you jumped or got too hard on it or the bike was too heavy. Nice bikes now you get more out...

Ah ok. I bought it January arranged returning it at sea otter in April. But yes I realize I dont have much option. It sucks because parts have scratches and dents for being new. It came with broken headset spacers
