i got a question, some of the motos on the bikesdirect website say they come with SIDs 'factory upgraded to 100mm' has anyone noticed if this changes the way the bike handles? are they supposed to come with the 80mm version?

thanks!

Nice ride! how do you like it?
Finally got to ride the Fantom build after a winter of rain and record breaking snow in the Mid-Atlantic. Bike performed great - I didn't after nearly 4 months of not riding! Ride is super plush. Climbs pretty good for 5" travel. Although it's 2lbs heavier than my Fuji Outland RC build, I think I prefer riding the Fantom.

I can relate to the long seat post. Pretty long reach down to the bar tho for steep decents. Guess that works for some guys.
Yes i'm tall (1m85) with very long legs (92cm). I am used to ride with the bar under the sadle, and you must know that for this bike, my bar is highter than my older bike. I have no problem in steep decents; where i live, there is very hard trails and for sur, i'm now very much confident with my 29er than with my old scalpel.
