Pros: For an old guy like me, this bike is awesome. It's lite, good looking.(Mine is Black, Blue and White.)The components are smooth. And the price was great.
Cons: The seat could be a little plusher.
Recommendation: I would recommend this bike to anyone who wants a good all around mountain bike for a good price.
Cons: Stock tires may have to be changed depending were you ride.
Recommendation: I have one and my oldest son as well. Service is everyhing buy local.
