Submitted by richard morgans a Cross Country Rider from Harrogate, North Yorkshire, England

Date Reviewed: August 25, 2005

Strengths:    Great Brakes and Hope/Thomson finishing kit

Weaknesses:    Heavy for an XC/all mountain bike package. Fork is a poor choice and would have opted personally for a Fox equiv. Single Pivot design easy to maintain but alot of bobbing on climbs

Bottom Line:   
A bullet proof bike but at quite a weight and being single pivot it bobs alot on climbs.
