It's the real GOAT
Rating:
The Good
build quality, looks and ride
Seat tube length, wheel base and stack height
Suspension spec
Brakes (Code RSC)
The Bad
Slackish seat tube angle
Mid-range drive train, not real bad but GX 10-52.
Overall Review:

A really good, responsive and fast for 170mm mountain goat. Went just a little higher on air in suspension which made a very supportive pedal platform. Admittedly over biked for most of my riding, however sure plows through rooty sections and confidence inspiring on downhills. I am relieved to find that the rather long wheelbase doesn't feel too slow through turns, but rather provides stability through technical climbs.

I have no issues climbing it, although a steeper seat tube angle would be good. I had a choice to go either Medium or X-Large due to inventory, YT suggested med would be too small and so I went XL. For full on downhill, that's a good choice, however medium would have been a better, more playful choice. After riding the summer though, I've come to really like the bigger bike. 

Changed out wheels, bars, stem, crankset and seat to carbon. Changed dropper from 170mm to 210mm. 

Changed out GX cassette to X01 (had from previous). Crank bros mallet DH pedals. Kenda Hellcat Pro ATC 2.6 tires.

32 pounds with pedals and bell.
