    Never heard of Eminent before today. They have funky rear suspension designs. I’m curious how they ride.

      I can’t give a full review because I am getting used to the slacker front head tube and the slightly different seating position from my old bike.

      Things that stand out immediately though, the frame is stiff as hell and it handles sustained climbs unbelievably well.

      The floating rear brake has also instilled quite a bit of trust, I find myself hitting the brakes in the chunk rather than before it.

      Great impressions so far, I’ll know how it handles lift assisted downhill this weekend!
