jeff richman Date Reviewed: January 15, 2013 Strengths: This is a great entry level bike that you can ride easily and not break your wallet. I raced BMX for a number of years so I consider myself to be an advanced rider. The bike can take everything I throw at it and wants more. It is not the lightest or the most advanced but if you want to ride and dont want to spend big $$$$ than this is the bike for you. No complaints at all. Weaknesses: Lower end components but good value for what you pay for. Bottom Line:

from israel Date Reviewed: December 5, 2011 Strengths: The Frame. it's not a bike, it's a tank. in a good way. bought the 2012 green/black version, and this frame just takes on anything. rock solid, very comfortable. the suntour XCM fork is nice. it's not a "high end" fork ofcourse, but it does it's job quite good. especially for the money. the Hydraulic discs which came with the bike are more than enough anyone in an entry level needs. i actually wanted to settle for less (V-braking) since it appears thier far too advanced for me, but came to like them Very fast. Weaknesses: sattle which is hard, and Stock Tires that don't grip a lot. thier mainly for "off roads" but not really for "trails" where you need massive grips on rocks. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Duration Product Used: 3 months Price Paid: $950.00 Similar Products Used: none, this is my first entry bike. Bike Setup: The bontrager evoke 1 sattle was too hard for me. after seeing this comment a lot, i felt it myself. for XC it's good, but for 1~ hours and more of fun riding down the area you live in "for sports" it's quite hard for my liking. i'll replace it
