It's interesting how many companies are using the floating shock set up since Trek abandoned it.

The privateer isn't actually a floating shock, it just looks like it is.

Can't reply on the good thread so...

My commentary is only targetted on price, I've no experience of either of the two besides online mag reviews.

Madonna seems to be a great frame at a "classic" (or even a touch costly) price, when 161 seems to be a great frame at the price of a discounted Transition.

Price difference. Back in october privateer was 1450€ with super deluxe ultimate (now 1700€).
Madonna is 2290€ without shock, with dpx2 2590€

Havent ridden Madonna tho.

There are discounted transitions? They seem just as pricey as anybody else.

Was replying to the wise man comment, i guess wise men spend money wisely. Was wondering if there was another reason to stay away from raww

@hamncheez2003 Not sure if you say this in a negative way. There are many similarities between the Privateer and the Raw, and quite a price difference. Apart from the weight and some finishing details the 161 lacks nothing and is spot on for an affordable but cutting edge enduro bike. I know 5-6 161 owners and they are extremely happy with them with no issues. Disclaimer: I own a 141 😁

188cm. Very stable bike with good balance between overall length and chainstay.
