Strengths: Handeling, reparablility, good quality parts, reliabilityWeaknesses: geonometryBottom Line: This bike I bought after I had used a 200$ norco, all steel. I needed to up grade. This was the bike in my price range. Im glad I got it. This thing rules! It has everything you need, and it does not give up. I dont take it easy with this thing, and I havent needed any big repairs, (bigest was a front derailor cable needed to be replaced) This bike takes me everywhere, and it is light, and capable to ride over 40 km on gravel, no problem. And the handeling is superb. I once was going 58km/h down a gravel road, arround a relative tight turn, and it stuck to the road, almost as well as pavement!
this bike is worth its cost..

Strengths: The judy works well needs a good week to work in. All componets are good for what you pay.Weaknesses: The rims(alex y2000) I already bent the front rim and I don't know how! The crank makes noises after peddling for 2 hours!Bottom Line: Its a great bike for what you pay for, but next time NORCO should think about different rims and a silent crank!
Duration Product Used: Less than 1 month
