Submitted by Nigel a Downhiller from ENGLAND!!

Date Reviewed: April 8, 2004

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

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!

Date Reviewed: August 18, 2000

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.

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.

Bottom Line:   


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.
