Submitted by Sandra Sayers a Cross Country Rider from Wellington, New Zealand

Date Reviewed: October 26, 2007

Strengths:    Handles like a dream.
Not a great technical rider - this bike has given be alot more confidence.
Fast on the down hills.


Weaknesses:    Little heavy (but get what you pay for).

Bottom Line:   
Known in NZ as a Cypher (equivalent to guys Trance X2).

Never owned a F/S bike before, best bike I have ever owned. Love the confidence I now have and especially love being able to bet my husband's hard tail on the down hills.

Really like the anodised finish, hopefully will help conceal a few of the accidents I am bound to have.

Great bike suited to all levels of riders.
