Additional Info

Most of it is stock, I only changed the stem, bar, grips, seat post (to 125mm travel), seat, brakes (from Guide R to RSC) and added a chainguide.
I'll keep the Giant wheels for now and see how they handle it. (Update: The rear rim didn't survive the last trip to the alps and the front rim is also pretty banged up. DT rims should be more durable)

I have spent a season on it, from my local trails (steep, tight, technical) to the Swiss and Austrian alps (fast, rough as hell) and I've been stoked on this thing every second!
