Favorite Trail:
Undisclosed
Duration Product Used:
2 Years
Price Paid:
$600.00
Purchased At:
Rollin Thunder
Strengths:
This bike is very light and easy to throw around. The frame is quite strong and conquered a 6 footer!
Weaknesses:
It's a hard tail, what can i say. The rims seem to be a little flexy when too much weight is put on it. The stock tires are cheap and should be replaced soon.
Similar Products Used:
special-ed hardrock, Kona Stuff, Carrera Combat
Bike Setup:
Everything is stock except for Shimano cable disc brakes.
Bottom Line:
It is very good for the entry level rider for a cheap price. If you want to do a little free ride but still some XC this is a good bike.
