A friend recommended the titus racer X women's to me yesterday and I've been thinking about trying one out. I'm currently riding a hardtail and not doing very well at all on the trails... perhaps if I had the racer X I can pretend to be a better rider - that makes the idea of getting one extremely tempting!... especially since I would need probably require a XXS frame! Would you mind if I could email you with more specific questions / chats about the racer-X? My email is lynxmarine@bigfoot.com... thanks! That’s a great review.

I had to laugh when my husband emailed me your review of the Racer X, your comments made me think I could have written it myself. I agreed to demo a Racer X from our bike shop this weekend. I must admit having never been on a full suspension bike I was completely blown away. Riding down hill was amazing; I was riding stuff that my hardtail leaves me feeling like I just got out of a boxing ring. By the end of the weekend, I too was choosing lines I normally would avoid. Since I first started riding 2 years ago my motto is; I am slow but eventually I get there. This bike is so light I was climbing significantly faster than I do on my hardtail. I found myself going over ruts and rocks I normally go around, testing myself and the bike to see if I could actually do it. One thing I really like about the Racer X is that with only being 5'1'' they make an extra small frame, which fits me perfectly. The bike just feels solid and it's almost scary the confidence I had by the end of the weekend. I just can't seem to wipe the smile off my face. I have myself convinced that I am not worthy of such a great bike (because I don't think I'm that great of a rider) so today I will reluctantly return the Racer X and go back to my hardtail. However after reading your review something tells me by next weekend I will be riding a Racer X or as I have already given it a nick name T-ReX! Thank you for sharing your experience.
