The bike is f@#$n burly. The frame and rims can take hard core urban assaulting. The bike dirt jumps as hard as my BMX jumper. The f%$#n thing gets me up the biggest hills and shreds the downs. The rigid fork keeps the bike stable kinda, but it adds to the rush-main-line to the brain. The Rigid-one can shred in any situation: Down hill, XC, Urban, Dirt. I am very, very proud of this product. It does it all man.
The bikes Power Tools handle bars are f#$%n week. I rode it off a 9 foot drop, and the Power Tools got tooled. Replace the bars with some super strong DH bars. The bike would be even stronger with a 130mm fork, so one could fly over chode on the single track.
The bike is f*&^n rad. If urban is your game, this bike is for you. Just make sure to get rid of the bars from the get-go. Also KHS and Free Agent are teamed up. Free Agent makes the Rigid-One, but they call it the Beaty, or something.

Very good brakes, components for the every day abuse. Great styling and great wheels. Also it is the best deal for such a high end bike as it is.
KHS wussied out on going the whole mountian bike style that it should be. If they are tring to make it all around bike they should get ride of the phat tires, (they are great if you are mountian biking though)
Like most of the KHS bikes, a good buy. KHS put all the efort into making this bike and others stylish and great products for even the smallest things like a seat. They think if they are going to put a price ont the bike they are going to make it the best that they can. If you are looking for a GOOD mountian bike, ALSO a GOOD getting around bike it is perfect. Soooo, I would call this the BEST all around bike.
(I recomend it)

A cruiser and bruiser, Negligible flex from the CrMo frame.
This bike is a point and shoot, who says it`s gotta be an alumunium frame to be stiff. It`s easy to land, nothing but two point landing on this thing. The 2003 model now has a rear disc mount if you think the current anchors aren`t up to the job.
It`s different! Good equipment level for what essentially will become a jump bike!
Haemorrhoid stimulating saddle. Unpredictable treads.
Weight is comparable to that of a B`52 bomber, but that`s the idea. Crash and burn, but still fly home.
I hope the SRAM 5 derailler last more than a gutter drop off!, Wheels out of true out of the box.
One size, What if Mr Steve Peat wants one?
A cruiser and bruiser, A MTB that feels a 20 inch BMX in the air. First look at it says "I have purpose wont break"
Regardless of what you teacher said about BLACK not being a real colour, the Rigid One is Gob smackingly beautiful, almost phallic(Hence the name)
Stable off drop offs. Rockets out of berms, changes direction very quickly, A fun bike for not much dollars.
This means even a novice is going to get a great intro to MTB/urban/slalom without having to consult a bank manager.

NO flex whatsoever. Before I got my fork I just about broke my wrists its so tough. Price was really good too. This thing will take anything you can dish. I cased a 28foot double at the crank and I was the only thing that buckled. Toss on a suspension fork, replace the drivetrain, bashguard, and a disc brake up front and you have the sickest hardtail around. I did a drop that 2 other guys cracked their Chameleons on. :P Super nible with the right fork. Overall really fun bike to ride and you'll surprise people that you're going big on a hardtail. I did.
Snapped the SRAM derailer, cracked both wheels doing a really big stair gap. No rear disc bracket. That's it. Put some 521s or Trailpimps on it if you're planning on busting huge.
This thing rocks. But it does take its toll on the body. Watch those ankles and wrists if you're doing stair gaps. Ride it like it should be riden. You can charge harder than the guys riding full suspension if you're up to it

Well, this bad boy is pretty good. It is currently my Four Cross racing machine. Everything on it stock was put on Ebay and I had a little fun. The stock wheels were great until I tacoed both on a roof gap. Whoops. PS i 16 keep that in mind, And i got the hookups at KHS. (I got the bike 4 free, the price above is costs into the bike)
All stock parts but wheels, no tabs.
This bike is the best cheap racer you can buy. Put money into it and u will fly!!!!

Crazy tough frame can take anything. I weight about 180 lbs and i did a 6.5 foot drop onto flat ground and nothing happened. I dont know how someone could fold two of these bikes in half to me that seems impossible.
components that came stock like the sram crap is going to break. Just replace it with deore and then everything is cool again. it weighs like 34 lbs which is a little heavy.
This bike is great for anyone into urban assault or getting into freeride. It can take it all and wont clean your wallet out. For less than 500$ i am sure you can pick one up and if you get the chance go for it. I think this thing is indestructible since i have just beat it and nothing has broke. You wouldnt be looking at this if you werent thinking about buying one so go do it.

Much beefier than I thought it was going to be...
Have not found one yet!
Just purchased the frame on closeout, very nice, I really wanted a le toy but have not had the money, so found a 4130 beefy frame for cheap, seems sturdy as hell, will let you know how she rides urban and dirt jumping!

Hard core right off the line,Urban or trail this Blackula is up to the test.it's got the back breaking strenght to hold up to DH ,freeride or just Bashing the H3ll out of the local street the $$ Price $$!!!!
Seat that would kill most humans,No rear set up for disc brakes
well worth the small amount of cash you might have to dig out of the couch to buy it.you might have to add a few things to get it just right for you... but it's gona carry the day.!!!!
