    I had a 2005 XC comp I loved riding it until the top tube cracked,I think the only 2 reasons it cracked is number 1 I weigh 235 ans 2 because I ride North Shore XCountry and that invovles a little more air than this bike can take,but as a bike it handled well and smoothed out the trails well...

    Hard tail + 8 inch fork = idiot.

    I personally ride a hardtail with a 6" fork and I love it pedal up the mountain and then flows down it,the perfect combo. 6" is as much fork as you can use on a hardtail if you ride it if you just fall down hills fine

    I have a XC comp and have tried the Foxes ,F-100 and Talas then I bought a 2004 Minute 2 the perfect fork for this bike.If you buy a 2006 Minute make sure too get a Minute 3 because with this bike you want 100mm of travel not 130mm the 130mm fork makes the bike handle all wrong
