$300.00 | | Purchased At: | frenchies bikes | | Strengths: | strong frame, rear suspention is great,comfortable seat, strong rims, nice shifters. | | Weaknesses: | GEARS!!! rear derailur is wery weak, it took a few hits in now none of my gears line up right.front derailur sucks too. it either shifts to far out and throws the chain off or it shiftes too close to the chain and gets jamed in my cranks. brakes become weak after about a month or two.also THE FORK!!! for is very stiff and there is no way to adjust it. whenever u preload ur shocks to jump an obsatcle,as soon as you ift up u will hear a very loud banging noise. also quite heavy. | | Similar Products Used: | none | | Bike Setup: | currently, i have a new rim with a tioga extreme xc tire on the back and a geax evolution tire in the front. i also hacksawed the seat post down about a half inch | | Bottom Line: | it is a decent bike,good for light mountain riding. not a very good bike to ride any type of urban at all.with the combo of weight and bad derailers it makes something as simple as an endo to fakie(ride backwards and turn around)very difficult b/c when u pedal backwards the chain falls off.IN CONCLUSION,THIS IS A GOOD BIKE FOR BEGINERS. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

$232.00 | | Purchased At: | ebay | | Strengths: | Front and rear suspension work well in rocky terrain.
The bike has held up well, and I have given it a severe ass beating on several occasions. No major broken components
after about 50 rides. Sturdy bike for the buck. | | Weaknesses: | Wellgo pedal nearly broke off after a couple hard hits.
Pivot point where rear arm and main frame connect requires
some disassembly to get it tight, if its loose here you'll
get some rattle over bumps. Heavy about 35lbs. | | Similar Products Used: | Schwinn Lemon Peeler. Wizzer. | | Bike Setup: | Frame: Fuji dual suspension frame made from Fuji Custom PowerOval ATB tubing
Fork: RST/USA MOZO ML-10, 63mm travel
Rear Shock: Tough Shock SD with preload adjustment
Drivetrain: Shimano components | | Bottom Line: | Great entry level bike, Beat the piss out of it, it can take
it. I would buy another Fuji when I trade up. This bike didn't suck at all. | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |

Infinity | | Bottom Line: | Overall a very good bike for the money. Nice components that work well together. This is a steel bike that weights more than the Discovery II which is aluminum. | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |
