Deal Details
An amazing price on a good full suspension trail bike.
Reviews describe this bike as a decent, well planted if slow climber that shines on the descents.

Compares well to Yeti SB 140 and SC Hightower.

Carbon frame with Universal Derailleur Hanger compatibility, Boost hub spacing, internal cable routing, and integrated frame protection
SRAM SX Eagle 12-speed drivetrain performs well in various conditions
TRP Slate T4 hydraulic disc brakes provide reliable stopping power
Tubeless-ready rims and tires for a smoother ride, better traction, and fewer flats
GT Dropkick Dropper Post quickly lifts and lowers your saddle with the press of a lever

Fork: Marzocchi Bomber Z2, 150mm
Rear Shock: Marzocchi Bomber CR Coil, 140mm

This is a great carbon frame with quality brakes and drivetrain.
The suspension is fine, but can be upgraded for lighter weight down the road.

it's a good deal, but GT is out of business so warranty won't be available in case something goes wrong.

Sorry, but there is a massive difference between a Marzocchi Bomber and a Fox 36. Comparing this bike to even a baseline High Tower is laughable.

not necessarily true unless this link is out of date.

Different dampers, but lots of shared parts.

Bomber Z2 = Fox 34
Bomber Z1 = Fox 36​

Have you personally tried anything with GT? I was struggling to find an actual contact for a question I had regarding warranty

Was in the market for a dual suspension bike. Really on the fence here...

I want to call this a slickdeal, mainly on the price and components. Just realize you're probably getting a throwaway bike if the frame ever cracks. I'd rock this, but then again I'm fine building or rebuilding bikes from scratch.

This is an OK deal, but....
SX is lower end. It will shift well, but it's heavy.
Shock and fork are lower end Fox, good enough for most. Simple and basic, but easy to setup, which is good when you don't know anything.
TRP high end brakes are well regarded. These aren't their high end.
At $1,400, you get a ready to ride trail bike that will be more than enough for a large majority of people. Pretty good deal.

Good basic entry level full suspension bike. If you're buying new this is hard to beat, parts are low end but nothing is total junk or unsafe. More than capable unless you're going to be hitting the gnarlier downhills.
