Strengths: Design It looks great and rides betterWeaknesses: They dont make it anymoreBottom Line: This bike rocks it can climb like a goat and it goes down hill like a rocket. I am impressed with the strength im not a small guy at six two two twenty this bike takes everything i can dish out weather its stair gaps dirt jumps or my p.r. at seven feet to flat. This bike was made for a beating and it loves to take it i would recomend it to anyone who wants a great bike to huck.

from massUSADate Reviewed: April 4, 2003
Strengths: burly
sweet geometry for jumping
badass looking
good standover clearance
KHS are good folk to deal with
Weaknesses: no real weaknesses...if you like to XC it lives up to it's name, but it's not an XC bike(obviously). cracked mine, but i seem to be a bit tougher on my gear than most. der.hanger is flimsy and loves to break. The paint chips easily, but you really shouldn't be concerned with a perfect finish if you're riding something that was made to be thrashed. Oh yeah, and they stopped making it.Bottom Line: sweet bike for the big air idiot
KHS' customer service is always a plus, too
Duration Product Used: 6 months

Strengths: Geometry is nuts on and makes for effortless gappies. I'm 5'11" and loving the slack angle stance for aggresive blasts of dual slalom and dirt jumping bliss.Weaknesses: shifters ofcourse, I hope to replace these firstBottom Line: When I purchased my bike it had to be ordered by the bike shop and I was told there is now 1 left in the So. California KHS headquarters waiting for a home as of late Dec. Its a sweet bike especially at that 800 pricetag. It is undecided whether it will still be offered as a frame-only for 2003.Too bad this bike is possibly going to be out of production, it's such a great bike.

Strengths: man this is one tough motherfu
Weaknesses: rocksh!ts, change them... VERY quickly... get marzocchis, theyre worth the cash and gripsh!ts... change them too! other than that jus the chainguide thats givin a lil trouble, shoddy paintwork too. oh and ive had it for 4 weeks now and there is a really loud creaking in the headset... cant be good
Bottom Line: great dirtjumper, handles really well and rails berms like no tomorrow, my advice is to change the shifters, forks, and if u have any cash left, the chainguide. bit expensive though $2500 AUD
