Chumba Racing came out strong at the dirt demo with the XCL. With five inches of smooth travel, the bike smoothed out the Bootleg Canyon rocks. The bike was a good pedaler too and was able to handle the short steep walls with ease.

We took some DH trails of route #4 and were very impressed with the lateral stability and tracking of the XCL. The bike tracked straight, undisturbed by the big rocks that tried to push the rear triangle sideways. This bike seemed dialed for what Bootleg Canyon had to offer.
