from Westlake Village, CA, USA Date Reviewed: October 20, 2007 Strengths: True Temper double butted steel frame. The long chain stays give it a fantastic ride in the rough. Tora fork. Fantastic fork. I hear more gripes from Reba owners. Probably stiffer than a Reba. No problems, holds air as good as new. Rhyno Lite rims. Wide and strong. Tires ride better with wide rims. You don't have to baby these wheels. Kenda Karma tires. Super supple tires. You don't have to run low pressures to get supple ride and good traction. They are light but rugged and wear well. The 1.9" rear weighs 300 grams less than the 2.2 front. Hayes mechanical brakes. Work well, no need to upgrade Other. The fork crown does not hit the down tube. The seatpost does not slip. The tires do not blow off the rims. Weaknesses: Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Duration Product Used: 1 Year Price Paid: $850.00 Purchased At: Open Road Bicycle Shop Bike Setup: All stock except Shimano pedals, Ergon grips, and WTB Speed V saddle.
