I've got the 2019 Fuji Nevada 29 1.7. Great frame, love the stability and it's just easy to ride. I'm not a fan of the 3x drive train but that's really been my only trouble. I'm looking at throwing a SRAM NX Eagle on since it will go straight on the hub and is reasonably priced. If I had a choice I would have gone for a 1.5 or better with better components. No problems with the brakes but I was coming off of a 96 GT Timberline FS so anything is better than that...
Overall a nice ride. I got this when my Giant was stolen and it's very dependable and easy to use.ProsGood fit and build. Front fork lockout. Adjustable preload. Smooth and fairly light for a bike in this price range.Cons160mm disc brakes...180mm would have made for better stops. Better grips...these rotate easily.
