    I loved my SX Trail as a do it all bike but it was a little heavy on the climbs. Still, it did make the climb up to Toads Wild Ride after 3 days of Mammoth fun, so I guess it wasn't so heavy after all.

    My friend has one and I've ridden it a few times. I like it, but it has a fairly low BB height and the cables/brake line is routed under it which would make be worry about catching them on twigs or bashing them when traversing the chunkier stuff. Over all, I think it's a great bike.
