Interbike 2008 - MTBR

Overdrive Pro


Overdrive Pro ‘09

Twentynineinches.com’s Guitar Ted summed up the 2008 Overdrive Pro by stating that, “The Overdrive Pro gets my thumbs up as a worthy hardtail 29? trail rig.” About the bike’s components, he reported that “All throughout the test period, the Overdrive Pro’s components shined. I was pleasantly surprised at the amount of abuse and adverse conditions they could handle.” Few bikes even come close to being comparable to the original 29er. Upgrades from the Overdrive include a Rock Shox Reba SL dual air fork, Truvativ 5D crank set with a sealed cartridge bearing Power Spline bottom bracket, a nicer rear derailleur, and Avid BB5 mechanical disc brakes.
