Reviews



reviewed by RowdyREBEL   on December 18, 2008
 
Pros
Light weight,grippy tires, responsive bike with a good looking paint selection.
 
Cons
Derailleurs and shifters are cheap as can be, but still function ok. Low end Crankset, BB is total garbage. Front fork is basically street use and smooth trail, although I did take my buddies bike on some crazy rough trails. It didn't break, but I was worried.
 
Review
If you hit the rough stuff and you weigh about 200lbs, don't get this bike. My friend makes this bike work and puts it through it's paces(I don't know how, but it works. If you are light weight,new at mtb riding and hit easy trails, you can think about this one, but you may want to upgrade components later.

Pros
Good entry level bike. Very light, aluminum frame, paint job, and the tires do well. The bike is very stable and the wheels spin very well for what you pay for.
 
Cons
Cheaper components, only a 24 speed, V-brakes and a coil front fork with no adjustments or lockout.
 
Review
Recommended for new mountain bike riders or people on a budget.
