Quite possibly the most expensive bike to come with deore brakes in history. Utterly ridiculous, especially when the cannondale Jekyll that dropped yesterday had factory suspension and XO1/GX drivetrain with code RSCs for a cheaper price.

Pricing is really bad on the entry model

Excellent content in my hometown. Saw a lot of Hawes there, but no SoMo? Good stuff and good riding. Loving my Titan but that Phantom is making my pants move.

As with all test Sessions, excellent work Vital! The Banshee family was honored to be a part of this one, and glad the Phantom treated you well!

The rear tire has a hard start to life. It was originally used to get a few bikes through Vital's Test Sessions in Tucson, Arizona, which is notoriously rough on tires.

i don’t wanna sound like a butthole... but... I don’t find drops of a “few feet” to be considered black or DB. Unless it’s super steep, tight, dropping into switch or D all the above at the same time. I’ve hit plenty man made doubles and tables with it. But it’s a trail bike. Not an all mountain bike. And I can’t justify an X2 or coil (even 11-6) on 135mm of rear. Flat flowy trails are sick though.

ooorrrr.. santa cruz could just refresh the LT with a seat angle that isnt a lawn chair and a 65 HA. I loved my hightower in the stock XO1 config riding blue and green trails. i tried to burly it up for black trails (monarch plus, tires, cush core, 35 stem, tall bars) but it just doesnt work...

this is why i love vital. responding to readers and giving quality feedback. +10283912074 points. this bike seems to be as close as ever to the cliche "do everything, one quiver" bike. with moto and bmx roots i love berms and jump trails. with an X2 would this 140mm rear end still handle bike park jump lines?
