I have the 951 XC from the Costco deal that happened in Feb 2024 and it's a great bike. This deal is still great except for the final sale part. With Costco, you can return the bike if it doesn't work out for you.

The XC stands for Cross Country, meaning it's a mountain bike designed for both climbing and descending. It has full suspension but won't have as much travel as a trail, Enduro, or downhill bike. But for those who want a mountain bike for the exercise you'll appreciate how light this XC bike is as it has a carbon frame. The components are pretty good for the price, but this clearly isn't a 3800 bike. At 2k it's a great deal even without Costco's return policy.
If you are really patient, I suspect Costco will do a similar sale on these as last year at some point, but you might need to wait until next year.

One last thing to add, don't get accessories from Intense, they are trash.
Just did a quick comparison and the costco one comes with SRAM while the intense comes with Shimano parts. I still think the costco one is a better deal when its on discount for $1500. Could use the $500 difference to upgrade some of the parts if needed.
The 951 seems like a pretty solid deal for a carbon frame and mid-high tier Shimano GRX groupset. I would personally rather not have a press fit bottom bracket in a carbon frame, but some people prefer it so ymmv. I've heard multiple mechanics trash the wheels and tires that are on this bike (I think they're pretty standard fare for brands looking to reduce cost) so you'll likely want to upgrade those first. But even if you spend another $400-500 on wheels and $150 on tires I still think you're at a pretty good price for a very solid build on paper.
