I really liked these when they came out but now I'm not so sure. To me they look like the last throws of the older style suspension technology mated with some newer building techniques, and the mix don't seem to sit comfortably together.

It kind of looks like the b*st*rd love child of an 857 and an Ibis Mojo - the kid with the dad that's much older than his mum, he's well dressed with all to cool gear but it all looks a bit awkward.

Someone got a great deal. The frame alone is worth that. The rear disc adapter is pretty nice as well as the shock adapter.

The brakes and crankset could fetch some good money. Parted out I think the buyer could get twice what he paid.
