Interesting take and thanks for the honest review. Like the scores out of 100 idea! Be interested to know how tall Justin is. I'm just over 6'2" and find the L version of this bike to be absolutely perfect: nimble and playful, climbing ability is amazing, descends really confidently over blacks that I've ridden... Having ridden a lot of bikes on review for IMB Mag I can honestly say this is one of my all-time favourites. A real 'do everything very, very well' kind of bike.
was thinking of a giant e bike but this is 1000 less and overall better. just need a climber for getting up in the mountains. my 2022 talon just does not cut the climbs, but is a great in town commuter.
I really like Justin. Justin slays Northstar and I am a big fan. This dude rides like a pro. Great review.

ive been offered a reigh 2022 sx and a 22 trance x 1. i ride mainly trail with ocassional bike parks. what would you advise?
There are lots of 130-140 bikes that descend like beasts. Saying "it is a trail bike" doesn't mean anything.
