I ride a 1997 Trek 9900 (OCLV frame) with the older 8 speed XTR. The ride is a little older but it is still solid. I had to replace the wheels and several chains but it's a great ride. I broke the frame once but Trek fixed it, no questions asked.
I love fast technical trails but me real strength is in climbing. I am a pretty slim guy and with a light bike like this I climb like a mountain goat.
I also road ride but I perfer mountain biking.
