| Review Title | Carbon X can perform in any race.... |
| Rating | 5 stars |
| I liked | The light weight. The stiff rear end and efficient suspension performance from big hits to high speed rocky corners. Front and Rear suspension is easily *tuned* together for all race conditions. Frame geometry that is well rounded and rides all trail types. |
| I didn't like | bottle cage space on the size Large frame was tight, but after flipping the RP23 shock(lockout knob on top) and using a side load cage(specialized makes a nice white one) the problem was solved. |
| Best Uses | racing and freeriding |

| Comments | I honestly never thought 1 bike could be used to race everything but the Carbon X is it. I just raced US MTB nationals in Sol Vista Colorado last weekend on the carbon X for all 3 races; cross country, Super D and short track. With 3 podium finishes, I am selling all my other race bikes and racing the X for the rest of the year. |

| Review Title | WOW happy purchase |
| Rating | 5 stars |
| I liked | The stability, the front fork, the quiet ride, the clean cabling, carbon fiber dampening, the rigidity, perfect amount of travel, the weight, the wheels, 15mm skewer, RP23 beauty. Great tire selection with it as well. |
| I didn't like | bottle cage issue until I did some research and saw the Arundel cage. Problem solved, there are other options also but this one was nice they have for left and right handed. I did not enjoy as much as my Racer X when going slow, the geometry wants to be ridden fast. |
| Best Uses | long rides, steep climbs, all climbs, fast descents almost feels like a 120mm bike, fast rides. It's a billy goat climbing. |

| Comments | I have ridden and owned all types of MTB's except downhill bikes and this bike is definitely a thoroughbred. I commented that riding it slow is not as fun as my Racer X, but only because it's so much better ridden hard and fast, it floats. I ride tight technical singletrack with steep/short climbs and descents, some quite technical rocky rooty trails. I think this is one bike that may allow me to go faster, where I may have hit my limit on the Racer X although it was awesome as well. This bike will take me to Leadville again this year!!! |

| Review Title | Problem with the bottle cage response |
| Rating | 5 stars |
| I liked | Have only had the bike 1 week and it is thoroughly what I expected so far! Needs some tweaking to accomodate my riding style. Very stiff and fast, and just looks awesome in the raw carbon and yellow! |
| I didn't like | I had no response to several email enquiries regarding this bike from Titus before purchasing. But I bought it anyway. |

| Comments | I have the small size frame and also had an issue with the bottle cage. I since bought a side access cage, of which there are several on the market, I have the 'specialized zee cage', and the problem is solved! But you can only use the small sized bottle! |

| Review Title | Problem with the bottle cage |
| Rating | 4 stars |
| I liked | Everything but bottle cage space in the frame. |
| I didn't like | Bootle cage space in the frame is not enought, you can't actually fit one medium or small bootle, its a real fault |

| Comments | Great bike, just the space for the bottle in the frame |
