Don't know how they compare in terms of spec or performance, but JS fils has got a 12-month old RM Altitude 50 & absolutely loves it. I've been allowed to sit on it provided I don't drool with jealousy on the paintwork - but I still wince at the price  :o

My neighbour has one.  They rock.  Got Fox suspesion on it?  If so, get it serviced at Mojo - it'll transform the bike.

here it is, its actually a 2004, yes it has a rear fox, and front bombers, both lockable on the fly. hand made in Canada. I drove up to collect it yesterday, in the snow, should have taken 5 hours round trip, but took me 12 hours. But I wasn't going to let any one else have a chance to get it, not for what I paid anyway.
