from sinking spring Pa. Date Reviewed: December 11, 2008 Strengths: Good geometry. Puts you in somewhat of an upright position but not too much. Just right for steep hillclimbs. Weaknesses: Components. Its an all mountain bike but the componentry speeks utherwise. I changed the rear derailer to a sram x9 from a 7. Front fork to a Marzochi am1 front derailer to shimano Dior xt tires to Kenda Nevagals 2.35 front 2.1 rear. Longer headset. New seat to a rocket V. Now Im shopping for a new rear shock. In my oppinion Manitoue suspension really dissapointed me, for as long as theyve been around they should be lightyears ahead of what they are now. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Mt. Penn Reading Pa. Duration Product Used: 1 Year Price Paid: $1000.00 Purchased At: Wolvertons Rdg Pa. Similar Products Used: Kona dawg delux. Bike Setup: 105 headset. Puts me out a little bet farther considering the bike puts you more upright. Works well with those sick downhills, also when bustin a nice jump. keeps me from eatin dirt.

from UK Date Reviewed: March 23, 2006 Strengths: Feels light when riding and seems to hug the trail when riding over a myriad of small bumps. Climbs very well – certainly ion a par to my hardtail. Anodised frame seems to keep the scratches at bay and adds to the quality feel of the bike. Weaknesses: I find the handlebars rather thin prefer fatter bars, but not much wrong with this beast. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Duration Product Used: 3 months Price Paid: $3048.00 Purchased At: Mountain High Similar Products Used: Kona Cinder cone (HT) and Marin Wolf Bike Setup: as sold - so far.
