from NELSON, NEWZEALANDDate Reviewed: August 1, 2001
Strengths: Light weight, good running gear, great brakes, good forks, excellent value for money, best option has it all. went looking at other brands and models, didnt need to sacrifice anything here!Weaknesses: For me the handle bars were too short in width and too flat in bend. so I replaced them with a riser bar. also the stem was too long and low, again I replaced with a shorter riser type, tyres were replaced with knobleys, std slicks are very light weight, In changing the bars,stem and tyres extra weight was added. std weight of a 19.5 frame is 11.8kg it now is about 12.5kg? No real product weakness though!Bottom Line: great bike, strong brakes, Magura Julies rock! very strong, no fade even down some serious long DH. no such problems with there brakes.shocks are great. Gears are all good,nice frame construction, all in all I give it the big thumbs up!value for money, every thing else I looked at I would have had to alter to get what I wanted. cost NZ$2700.00
Favorite Trail: Queen Charllot sounds
Duration Product Used: Less than 1 month

$1300.00
