Climb easier - descend faster. Lighter and more nimble than most dedicated big-drop, big-hit bikes, the new Guapos are a whole lot more plush than the
fast-twitch behavior of XC oriented bikes. The El Guapo can easily be built up under 30 pounds and ridden as a supremely confidence inspiring trail bike.
With a slightly more heavy duty parts kit, it is very capable of running with the big dogs in chairlift country.
