Strengths:    Decent overall weight, rear shock better than expected for the price, easy to work on

Weaknesses:    fork a bit "primitive"

Bottom Line:

I bought this bike for my daughter, swapped out a few parts for her (put them on her brother's bike, an upgrade for him too!), and SHE LOVES IT! Her previous bike (granted, a big-box bike, but it had gotten some nicer parts, too) was noticeably heavier than this one, and the extra suspension travel is something she really appreciates! I personally wish the bike came with a slightly better fork, but that's a $130 upgrade down the line.

Strengths:    frame, suspension, grips, seat, tires, and components

Weaknesses:    pedals

Bottom Line:

Without being too familiar with the brand, it's been a great bike so far. Looks dope, and rides good! Also, super quiet. Just had to change out the bear-trap pedals when I got it. Personally, I'd give it a 9/10 for a $400 mountain bike.
