Strengths: Rugged, good mid level components, LX, Deore, Tektro brakes, Judy TT, Rock Shock coil dampenedWeaknesses: Heavier but tolerable on climbs(makes you stronger no doubt)
Squeaky seatpost(spray it), Bar ends take up valuable hand space.Bottom Line: I have enjoyed this bike very much. It handles very well on rocky terrains and does not wear you out on the long climbs. It takes everything I have given it. For the money spent and the lifetime free service its a fantastic value for mid level x/c riders. Friends with Gary Fisher Sugars and Specialized Rock Hoppers gave me grief at first but have changed their tune since.
Favorite Trail: Desert mountains (any)
Duration Product Used: 6 months
Price Paid:
$475.00
Purchased At: Cycle Spectrum
Similar Products Used: Iron Horse MT400
Bike Setup: Added the adjustable dampened coil with longer throw for 40 bucks at the shop. Replaced bottom bracket from stock to Shimano free, the stock made grinding sounds.

Strengths: For an entry level dual suspension xc bike it performs relatively well. The components have withstood the pounding and the frame is solid. Very durableWeaknesses: A little difficult to hold line when climbing uphill. Thus, handling is a drawback. Seems heavy--no, it is heavy.Bottom Line: Would only recommend to money conscious buyer.
