from Central MNDate Reviewed: June 24, 2011
Strengths: Fit and finish of bike is pretty good. I kinda like it that it is a seldom-seen brand in my area. For 2011 the 29'er has a low-end Suntour fork which I think is a better product than Dart 1. I really like the hydraulic lockout which also functions as a variable compression damper.Weaknesses: Gruppo is about average for price point...and some marques can be had for a little less for the same equipment level. Avid bb5 brakes are adequate for an old fart like me, but a younger, faster rider would probably soon find them lacking.Bottom Line: If you're after a basic bike to get out and ride, there are cheaper 29'ers. I chose a bike dealer rather than brand name, and took what I thought was the best offering in my general price range. So far I'm pleased.
Favorite Trail: Cuyuna
Duration Product Used: Less than 1 month
Price Paid:
$750.00
Purchased At: Local bike shop
Similar Products Used: Nothing recent, nothing in 29", nothing with any kind of disc brakes.
Bike Setup: Standard factor parts so far. When fork goes south that will go, and I am considering different seats. The loaners I've tried so far aren't any better than the plain-vanilla seat bike came with.
