I've never ridden one to be able to comment. I wonder where the flex would be coming from though? The front triangle and rear swingarm are formed aluminum (I assume they made them like Orange?), it has a through-axle and beefy-looking bolt-on dropouts.
I have ridden the following rig though, the Session 10, and it was a HP+I beast. The only complaint I think folks could apply to that bike is it was a tank.

Also, when I Googled the Session 10 these photos came up on PinkBike, and I had to share them. I'm in love but I'm still not sure if in general I should be saying 'sorry' or 'you're welcome':


...
Anyway, where my mind always goes when I think of the Session 10 is this fellow I bumped into once or twice going up Fromme single-ringing a Session 10 with a last-gen Monster-T. Must have weighed 50lbs? Beast mode.
