I'm relatively new to mountain biking and have just purchased a Rocky Mountain Instinct 950 from Don. He was very patient, let me demo two different style MTBs and based on my feedback and my longer term goals recommended the Instinct. The bike fit, feel, and performance is above my expectations and does encompass all the attributes I liked in both the Demo bikes. I recommend giving VeloZoom a call if you are in the market for a new bike, service, and/or excellent advice. Thx VeloZoom! Todd
