love this machine. you "feel" faster...and are! (if push self), as, its light, yet strong! took me to the next level. have ridden many other machines of friends and tested many at conventions.....none compare to my trusty ol 'dale. read dozens and dozens of reviews on net...all good! (and thats rare) i did upgrade most components, but thats personal taste..a great platform to "dial in"

I have the F700sx with a Lefty Max fork...plenty of front end travel. As with most C'dales, the frame is ultra light, and lets you slam it though the trails with ease...all in all, it's a damn good bike.

I hate this bike. I built it up with the old components on my old bike (it was a '99 with a Fatty SL fork upgrade). What a piece of crap. Destroys my back, fork has no travel and the parts are breaing constantly (My fault). Headset is slow and sticky.
