from Tulsa, OK, USA Date Reviewed: January 11, 2006 Strengths: Everything. Hydroformed aluminum front triangle with square tubing rear triangle- doesn't get any stronger than that. Mine has a cool tribal paint scheme over pearl white- looks better than most guys tribal tattoos. I needed a super tough frame to do rough XC riding since I'm over 200+ and Tulsa's trails are notoriously rocky. This fit the bill perfectly and still is relatively light at 4 pounds. Built into an indestructible rider/racer at 26# with a 100mm fork. Weaknesses: not for weight weenies. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Turkey Mountain Duration Product Used: 1 Year Price Paid: $200.00 Purchased At: Ebay Similar Products Used: Trek 8000, Specialized epic Bike Setup: Converted to XC for a Clydesdale: Reba, SRAM X.0 shifters & derailleur, King headset & hubs, mavic rims, Hope QRs, Kenda Nevegals, Avid mechs with speeddial Ti levers, SRAM 990 cassette (2006), full Nokon cableing, SAAGO stem, Easton Monkeylite bar, Truvativ singlespeed crank w/ bashguard, Thompson seatpost with rare Thompson collar.
