from Port Elizabeth South Africa Date Reviewed: June 5, 2007 Strengths: Same as below Weaknesses: Initially the chain would skip off the middle ring when standing under full power while the rear shock is open and the rear wheel hits a bump. We moved the 2nd spacer from the tight hand side to the left so that the rings are closer to the frame. This seems to have improved the problem. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Harkerville, Baviaanskloof Duration Product Used: Less than 1 month Similar Products Used: Truvativ Bike Setup: Anthem Team with RP23, Reba Race, XT brakes dual control, Mavic X819 with MAxxis Crossmark UST tyres, XT crankset (duh!), XT derailleurs.
