I have ordered the riot, but it has not arrived yet (the seller told me there was some stock issue with the color I wanted, which is that 'dirty white' that I like so much). The geometry seems a bit more modern, and for me having BSA was a plus. The only two downsides I see from it: only one bottle cage support, and placed a bit too high so without adapters you can only use small bottles. b) no sram UDH hanger. If they corrected these two issues it would be, on the paper and to my taste, a perfect frame for XC/light trial
