Avanti Torrent CS 7.2 (2016)

I changed from a 29` Norco in a Large frame to a Medium 27.5 Torrent and can`t believe the difference. I am 6` tall and 90kg and the Medium fits great. All the components are quality and the bike is light, fast and easy to handle. I race XC a couple of times a year and the bike loves it. Jumps, berms, long trails or climbing, no issues. The only upgrade I have made is changing the front set up to a single speed 32t egg shaped ring. This combined with the 10x on the back makes the climbing and descending easy enough as it varies from 30t to 34t depending on gradient. The dropper post toggle is easy to use and works in all directions, however the rise in the saddle is not the quickest this does not bother me in the slightest. Great bike and at this price, well worth it.....  Less
