$600.00 | | Purchased At: | MY LBS IN THE UK | | Strengths: | Built up well, its a great ride, but with a dodgy back wheel, it feels unsafe to a certain degree... | | Weaknesses: | only weakness is poor build up. using the rite bits gives u a perfect ride | | Similar Products Used: | none with similar suspension type | | Bike Setup: | Marzocchi Shiver DC, 26inch wheels, Hope Stoppers, Michellin and INtense treads, Truvativ Cranks. | | Bottom Line: | superb bike, great handling qualities, a bit on the short side for me. Its not heavy at all. i think my build weighs around 40pounds.
Superb on acceleration, hardly any pedal bob.
Really good value for money if ya ask me! | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

$2300.00 | | Purchased At: | STORM factory | | Strengths: | RIPS UP CORNERS , NO PEDELING FEED BACK SO IT`S A GREAT SPRINTER , IT WILL TAKE ANYTHING YOU CAN PUT IN FRONT OF IT. | | Weaknesses: | THE ONLY WEAKNESS I CAN THINK OF IS THAT AFTER 5 OR 6 REALY HARD RIDES , THE PIVIT BOLTS COME LOOSE AND NEED TO BE TIGHTENED. | | Similar Products Used: | STRAIT 8, STRAIT 6, INTENSE M1, AND THE ROTEC DH BIKE. | | Bike Setup: | MONSTER T FORK, RACE FACE, XTR, MRP, SUN DBL WIDE IN FRONT, MAVIC 321 IN BACK, ALSO A FOX TC, HAYES, AZONIC AND AC HANDLSET UP, AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST SOME BIG FAT INTENSE TIRES. NOT TOO BAD? | | Bottom Line: | THIS IS A DREAM FOR ANY HARD CORE DOWNHILLER. YOU`LL NEVER FIND A FUNNER, MORE STABLE BIKE TO RACE DOWNHILL.THIS IS WAY TOO MUCH BIKE FOR AN AMITURE.

Total awsome ride. Corners better than any other rig on the circuit. Take big sharp square hits and just laughs. One of the cheaper frame on the market. Built solid won't break...give it a try you won't be sorry. | | Overall Rating: |
