Verdict Very lightweight & smooth riding.....very happy to have this MTB as a second backup ride. Recommended for: Anyone reviewed by kclas140   on July 31, 2009   Pros Cheap. Fun geometry. Cons Paint chips. No way to attach the included cable stops to the frame (but they're not necessary). Verdict I finished the build, hopped on the bike for a ride around the neighborhood, and couldn't stop grinning. Slack headtube angle, low-ish bottom bracket, shorter chainstays, feels like riding my old BMX. It's a $90 hardtail frame that's a lot more fun than the FSR I parted out to build it. If you've got some old parts you want to give a second life, the Reken is an excellent option. Recommended for: Value seekers
