Strengths: very small, fast cornering, stable on high speeds, super plush rear suspension, not to heavy, durable, beautiful,
Weaknesses: head angle is a little flat, lots of bearings to service.
Bottom Line:
I love it, rides like heaven is fast and seems to be durable and easy to service. it is more for technical trails and not made for benderlike base jumping (i mean 60 foot drops). though dirt jumping with it is a lot of fun. I believe it is good buy for everyone who wants more of a freeriding (I hate that word) bike with lots of travel which can handle the abuse of racing and flying ;-) for germany it is a super race bike for the national races.

Weaknesses: don't know yet
Bottom Line:
So i was in Brewster the other day and the first production MOtorhead was kicikin around so i took it out for some street and hit the jumps, this bike is exactly what it was intended to be, a cross between a metalhead and a project X, and thats what it feels like. ANd BUY ONE, please 'cause they cost a lot of money to make.
btw, this is located just after the 2 table top jumps and then over the bridge and starting down the hill is where the Rock section is located! just before the Paid in Full Cut off Read More »
