from Dublin, Ireland Date Reviewed: September 3, 1999 | | Duration Product Used: | 6 months | | Strengths: | Strong. Single pivot with grease ports. Looks awesome. | | Weaknesses: | No replaceable rear mech hanger (but I think the new models have). Bad positioning of rear brake bosses - get a disc, the frame has mounts for them | | Similar Products Used: | Mountain Cycles Moho CXS Trek Y22 | | Bike Setup: | 98 Z-1's Stratos Helix pro with lockout XT mech,shifters, v-brakes Race Face turbine LP cranks. Thompson seatpost. | | Bottom Line: | This is a great frame. With 4.5 or rear travel it rips downhill, it's also very good on tight sigletrack. I'd reccomend getting a lockout rear shock cos I hear it bobs uphill also get a rear disc brake. I use V-brakes and the spring return is lousy due to dirt getting in the cable cos its right by the bottom bracket. Overall, a joy to ride. | Overall Rating: |

from SLC, UT. Date Reviewed: April 14, 1999 | | Favorite Trail: | Wasatch Crest | | Duration Product Used: | 1 Year | | Strengths: | solid frame, well built, | | Similar Products Used: | amp b-5, specialized fsr | | Bike Setup: | 98 z1bam in front, fox alps 5 rear. Hayes discs gripshift 9.0sl | | Bottom Line: | This Bike is a huge improvement in handling quality over the amp b-5. It handles very good in technical single track and is very fast in the downhills. Good durable bike with great handling characteristics. I rode my amp for a year and a half. The lenz is like a hardtail for stiffness compared to the amp. The suspension is a much better design and functions much better. No more blown out shocks! Highly recomended. | Overall Rating: |
