Date Reviewed: August 21, 2000
Duration Product Used:3 months
Price Paid: $3100.00
Purchased At:Tonys bikes Milford CT
Strengths:Unbelievable bike for the price, I have even used it for Dual slalom and finished second with it in a pro expert feild race. Great in singletrack as well as open fast courses. Very stable jumper.
Weaknesses:Couldn't find any, nothing to nitpick or complain about.
Similar Products Used:Kona stab dee luxe, the Iron Horse is lighter and more stable, also easier to throw around.
Bike Setup:I could use a higher rated spring than it came with.
Bottom Line:I race as a semi pro and needed a bike fast this season. This was the only bike that fit the bill for the money. I have done excellent with the bike on the local scene and even well at the national level. A great bike for the downhiller on a budget or entry level to expert semi pro level riders.

Similar Products Used:Uzzi Sl
Bike Setup:Comes set up for 140 lb rider, had to change springs from the start.
Bottom Line:Bike is a good starter for downhill racing. Best mix of components at the best price I found. Good handling characteristics for a tight single track racer.
