Don't know the OP at all, but I can say that the bike looks good, and the X7-X9 set-up is nice. If it has X3 or X5 I may think twice. Almost any Fox fork is a good one, so I would not be scared of that at all....and the RL with 80mm of travel is perfect for the trails around here, even Mohican if you wanted to. I have a Gary Fisher Wahoo back from early 2000 and I still beat the crap out of it on Phase I. If this were more my size (i'm 5'7) I would seriously be considering it right now. Juicy 3 hydraulic brakes are nice too.
Nice bike, OP.....GLWS!
