It's a Beast! We rode 11 miles single track, it will roll over anything. I had so much fun, could not stop grinning

I have a short inseam (28) and the medium was a perfect fit, more stand over than my old trek 4300.

I took the 4300 into the shop and let them switch out the pedals, had them weigh both bikes:

Trek 4300 (26) 29.6
Trek Cali SL (29) 28.6
