This is my new 09 Corsair Maelstrom Hammer, large - dirt. I am so stoked on this new rig. Corsairs' attention to detail and frame refinements are some of the best in the industry. These are my favorites points: Rearward Axle Path - Idler Pulley for Pedal Performance (mix in Hammerschmidt compatability with the pulley too) - 2:1 Leverage Ratio - Super stiff frame - Adjustable Head Angle - 150mm Rear end - Full length seat tube - 180mm Travel to perfectly match FR forks to. It's the only bike on the market to come stock with a 3.5" Stroke - Roco World Cup. Hell Yea! The snow is now piling up here in Denver, so its only been urban riding so far. I am in Love. Great balance point and very stiff throughout. Some friends and I are planning a trip to head over to the Lunch Box in Grand Junction. This will be the real test to date. I'll be sure to get some photos and update my review. The build is 40.07 lbs currently. I work at Treads Bicycle Outfitters in Lakewood, so that is how I could pimp out my ride. Stop by to see some sick rigs. I consider myself a MTB tester so I'm ready to have a go at her. I believe this could be the best FR bike on the market. Alrighty... I think that is enough for now. ....Ohh, I almost forgot about the locking pivot hardware. later
