sorry if it’s not the place for this question.... but, couldn’t find the answer anywhere...
do anyone here have any experience with this bike?
I broke my AM frame last weekend, and looking for a replacement.
I really like the look of the FOXY. but I can’t find any good info about it
how does it ride? rear end?
square edge bumps?
I use to ride dw-link bikes. both DH and AM. so I like the way it pedals up hill.
but I also want it to be plush for going down the trails.

Thanks

Had one last season. Pedals well, gets through rough stuff but is by no means a plow bike. Only thing that is wrong with the Foxy is the lack of ISCG tabs, otherwise a good and fun bike.

I have Foxy since the end of last season. Didn't ride much on it, but compared to my Transition Bottlerocket (which I broke), Foxy is great. XC rides never been so much fun. Its very fast on rough terrain. I've got Fox 36 in the front, so it's quite slack (about 66°) and very stable downhill. It feels much more in control compared to bottlerocket and it doesn't blow trough travel too fast. I have problems with shock tune as I use different shock and there are problems with loosening pivot bolts, but its easy to solve with loctite.

had a Foxy last year. would not recommend it. the geometry is whack, the rear flex is terrible.
if you're used with the dw-link you'll find the foxy way less performing.
go for the 5.spot and don't look back ;)
