Strengths: No issues except the breaks.Weaknesses: Breaks need to be adjusted often.Bottom Line: I have used this bike for downhill use for the last two years and have not had a problem. Nothing broke, everything was strong enough, the breaks were compatible with the speed at times. Light for climbing up and stable coming down. Great for x country.
Favorite Trail: Cherry Poppins

Strengths: tires haven't popped yetWeaknesses: the disc brakes need to be adjusted every couple of weeks (I ride 2-3x / week in the city, have hardly taken it cross-country). Sometimes the cables get stretched out, often there is continuous rubbing of the front wheel. Have had to replace a couple cables already.Bottom Line: Not a terrible bike but just going off curbs I can tell I wouldn't want to take it downhill. I hope to upgrade asap!

Strengths: cheap, only 650 Can.Weaknesses: alot of things. the fork is terrible, the brakes easiily get wonky, almost everything is kind of weakBottom Line: its alright I guess if you just rided around the city, but i wouldn't recomend it for someone who actually rides on any trails other than walking paths. I like it because it was cheap, but its not really much of an XC bike, even though they say it is. i would go with a Kona or Specialized or Norco or Rocky or anything in this price range, because they all seem to be better.
