Reviews
Pros: The frame is brilliant, love it.
Cons: I broke the rear hub in under two months of owning. V-brakes leave allot to be desired, but there are disc mounts. All the gear on it is basic entry level.
Recommendation: For the price it is pretty good, but you might as well save a few more bucks and get the sport or comp version... but if your into spending that much then you might as well get a specialized hard rock.

Pros: Light weight. Robust frame. Great beginner specs.
Cons: plastic pedals. linear brakes vs. disc brakes.
Recommendation: Great bike for the money. Good for camp grounds and light XC riding. Leaves plenty of room for upgrades, and is good enough to get someone interested in trail riding.

Pros: wide handle bar for better feel if your big guy
breaks well, but no discs if that matters to you
Cons: Suntour cranks dont work for me, maybe bc I'm big guy 6'0 300 lbs.
i'd change pedals don't like toe clip
Recommendation: good ride feel light & easy to ride even though kinda heavy ride...good entry level MTB

Pros: Great ride so far, had for about a 2 weeks. Considering i'm a beginner this seems to be a great beginner bike so far
Cons: I had some issues with the shifter that eventually corrected itself
Recommendation: So far I'm very pleased with my bike. Once I get more experience I will probably invest in a better bike. But for now it's a great bike and it's taking care of me
