Date Reviewed: October 8, 2003 | | Duration Product Used: | 3 months | | Price Paid: |
$1100.00 | | Strengths: | Components. Has a decent setup compared to similar priced hardtails. | | Weaknesses: | Saddle, | | Similar Products Used: | Tested Cannondale F600, Gary Fisher Big Sur, Corratec FreeRide XL | | Bike Setup: | All base components except upgraded rear to Deore XT and pedals to egg beaters. | | Bottom Line: | First real bike for a long time. I bought it for an endurance race we have that has a 50mile mountain biking section to it. Got a great deal on it compared to similar hardtails in the price range.
Bike rides fantastic. Took it on some intermediate trails to fell it out. The bike rode great compared to the hardtails I used to ride. Absorbed all I could throw at it. Very easy to control.
Only complaint is that there seems to be some squeaking when I pedal.
Also, at 29lbs, even though it is light for a decent dually, going to try to shave some weight off due to extreme distance I have to travel. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |
