heck yeah!!! I wanted a sport bjke since I was like 5!!! Got my license and a job and bought a bike when I was in high school. 3 years later, I still have her
Check out the giant Trance line. The X1 has the oversize head and a through-axle fork with fox shocks and pretty good components. Of you're looking for carbon, the Trance line also has the option of carbon with the Trance Advanced and Trance Advanced SL.
That's what I'll be looking at next. Or if I want something capable of drops and more than xc, the Reign is where it's at. Or the trek remedy. People really like the trek remedy. American made baby!

I got a chance to talk to and ride with the owner of one when I was at a local mtb park. He loves it and says it's more rigid than any of the standard forks he's used and he totally doesn't even notice that it's a lefty
