Tsetse Date Reviewed: February 9, 2013 Strengths: The bike is a great first bike for people dipping their toes in mountain biking. Gary Fisher's G2 geometry makes for very good handling at slow speeds and good stability at high speeds. Even with the rather steep head angle, the bike feels very confident and refined. It rides lighter than the scales may suggest and it has good upgrade potential. Overall a perfect bike for a beginner! Weaknesses: Not much tire clearance in the rear, but that is not much of problem as most people won't run tires bigger than 2.2 anyways. The stock Suntour fork should be replaced with something that feels a little less like a pogo stick and more like a suspension fork. Bottom Line:
