GT IDXC 3.0 XC Full Suspension
Product DescriptionThe IDXC 3.0 is one of the standout values of GT's full-suspension line this year. It features a thrifty yet effective mix of Shimano's new Deore LX components combined with SRAM's new X.9 shifters and rear derailleur. The 3.0 is a solid choice for the hard-working sport or beginner-class racer who also appreciates a good weekend trail ride.

from Greenville, SC, USA Date Reviewed: July 14, 2011 Strengths: Great entry level real mountain rig, and a good bike for the money. Drivetrain has held up well through the years. Price was a selling point, and this bike was my gateway into better riding. Weaknesses: Lots. Front shock is terrible, too much give and no adjustment, so you get a ton of rebound on any big hits. Rear shock is less weak than front, but no lock-out, no pro-pedal, just air pressure and rebound adjustment Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Paris Mtn (local) Duration Product Used: More than 3 years Price Paid: $850.00 Purchased At: eBay (bike shop out Similar Products Used: Just stepped up into an Ibis Mojo. Bike Setup: bone stock still, 'cept for some aggresive tires and a downhill (high rise) bar.

from Cambridge, MA, USA Date Reviewed: May 8, 2008 Strengths: Great components for the money, no pedal bob, smooth suspension, Avid disc brakes and levers, SRAM trigger shifters (better than Shimano). Weaknesses: The bolt which attachs the "dogbone" part of the suspension linkage has broken a few times. Not a big deal as I carry a spare bolt and allen wrench and can replace it on the trail.
