Strengths:    great freeride bike, little heavy, u can run anything anytime with it and not have it break, bust, or go to pieces...my other bikes have

Weaknesses:    couple noises, easily fixable with oil

Bottom Line:   
It's an awesome bike. I've had mine for over two years and havnt HAD to replace anything, but i did for more performance. noleen chubby is OK, shock is decent, everything else on the bike is great. A perfect bike for the person that wants to buy a stock bike and go easy, or a killer bike for freeriders and beginner downhillers(with a few upgrades)

Strengths:    cumfy ergonomically,
predictable at speed, great climber!
NR-4 shock much more reliable than stock numba.
great cross country ride


Weaknesses:    tough to keep quiet, lots of sqeeks & creeks,
NR-2 shock failed after 2 weeks, chubbys a bit harsh &
unpridictable while jumping.


Bottom Line:   
really fun bike for the weekend warrior,
but I'll definatley upgrade to a more burly ride!!
maybe a Santa Cruz Bullet or a Intense UZZI.
