$5100 for a Sram X9, Avid Elixir 5, and AC wheelset????
Wow, that bike seems pretty overpriced, imo, or am I out of touch with the current prices.

They still do make great bikes for a great price. The Dakota D29 is 4-500 less than any other carbon hardtail 29er. The two FS 29er bikes are right on par with similiar stuff from Specialized.

They do still make a great bike, look into the Exile and Durango Series. Terribly competitive in their class. Far exceeds the GT’s, TREK, etc etc
