TRANCE X ADVANCED SL 0: MOUNTAIN BIKE ACTION SAYS IT “BEGS TO BE RIDDEN FAST”

“This bike is ready to get you to the front of the pack.”

The August 2012 issue of Mountain Bike Action calls the Trance X Advanced SL a “special breed” or more succinctly, “a little bit like riding a mountain goat that’s overdosed on caffeine pills.”

ON THE RIDE:
“Better hang on; this bike is ready for the long haul, and it’s gonna be trucking fast the whole way…Whereas a cross-country race bike is finicky and a downhill race bike is plush and stable, this bike blends the two…climb(s) like a mountain goat…a lively snap when entering and exiting hard cornering efforts…an excellent descender.”

ON THE SPEC:
“The Trance X Advanced SL is a special breed, blending the best in frame and component technology…uses mack-daddy T-800 Advanced carbon technology…features a no-holds-barred Shimano XTR parts package, DT Swiss Tricon wheels and top-of-the-line Fox suspension. It’s not one component that stands out here; it’s the whole kit.”

BUYING ADVICE:
“Super D Slayer: This bike begs to be ridden fast and pumped through every obstacle on the trail.”
