Strengths: Light for the price; stiff enough frameWeaknesses: Acera rear derailleur has started to skip; chain falls off when shifting from from middle to small chainring when in 2 gear on the cassette (easy to avoid once you know about it; stock seat if awful and the seatpost is cheesyBottom Line: Actually, not a bad little bike. I haven't had any problems with the Acera front derailleur, but I haven't had it off road much. I save that riding for my GT XCR. I use this bike for road training mostly, though I have been using it to practice bunny hops and other small jumps!!! If I can't sort out the rear derailleur, I may have to upgrade it.

Strengths: "Stout yet Gazell like", frame has reasonable strength and proportions are all correct for thrashing around on. Rear stays are curved for perfect braking, RST disc is exellent!Weaknesses: Frame is not gusseted, CABLE RUNS ALONG TOP TUBE ARE VERY VERY IRRITATING! Manufacturers take note!Bottom Line: Good for the money, not specific for any type of ride but suited to almost all styles, upgrades are required instantly though! (read obove)
Favorite Trail: P.O.R.K Club trails, Town for Trials!
