Submitted by dman a Downhiller from hopkinton, ma. usofa
Date Reviewed: August 3, 2002
Favorite Trail:rt. 9 at rush hour
Duration Product Used:Less than 1 month
Price Paid: $100.00
Purchased At:dark alley
Strengths:steel, simple, seems pretty burly, stable when hucking the loonies, hot little honey on the seattube
Weaknesses:not exactly pretty welds, but $100 won't buy a Merlin
Similar Products Used:k2 flyin monkey, gt avalanche, oldskool rocky mtn DH - all cracked or broken. Maybe this one will last more than half a season
Bike Setup:ridiculous and somewhat offensive
Bottom Line:I just cracked my k2 so I needed a cheap and solid frame in a hurry. i ordered this up and so far my impressions are good. The welds could be a little smoother, but there is nothing too bad. For 100 bucks you can't complain. Haven't spent much time on her yet, but she will certainly receive plenty of violent abuse.
