Submitted by Archie Brown a Cross Country Rider from Melbourne, Australia
Date Reviewed: March 3, 2005
Favorite Trail:You Yangs
Duration Product Used:6 months
Price Paid: $600.00
Purchased At:Ebay - cheap!
Strengths:Super Light Easton Frame, XT drive train, plush Manitou forks.
Weaknesses:Rear drop out was a bit weak, replaced easily.
Similar Products Used:Merida, GT, Diamondback
Bike Setup:Manitou 6, XT, 90 FSA stem, Crank Bros Candy, Crostini XC, Racing Ralphs.
Bottom Line:Light and responsive bike, wicked acceleration, awesome climber, especially when the geometry is set up correctly. Easy to manouvre in the air but wont handle like a soft tail/dually down the steps or rocky switchbacks. About as good as a hardtail will get.
