Favorite Trail:state street
Duration Product Used:6 months
Strengths:speed
Weaknesses:pop
Similar Products Used:haro
Bike Setup:my style
Bottom Line:fast as hell but too stiff to jump over your girlies car. great for city life but dirt jumping becomes a tougher adversary. go fast live longer. any 20 is left in the dust but the 24 seems to be glued to the road. traffic will notice you alot more now with the bigger frames and rims. get this bike if you want to get somewhere with a smile. dont expect to throw any huge tricks as easily, it can be done though.

Submitted by a downhiller a from usa
Date Reviewed: March 1, 1999
Bottom Line:
This bike has a great geometry. Its 73 degree head tube 21.5 inch top tube, and 72 degree seat tube give this bike a large front wheel base which is good for large riders. The bike feels really smooth in the air. The frame has a big gusset at the head tube to prevent the frame from cracking. The wheels it comes with are relatively strong diamondback flip-flop hubs and some super 7x look a likes, but I swapped them for king hubs and super 7x which are stronger and lighter. The forks are a little heavy. The cranks are the only thing on this bike which suck because they are solid cromo making them heavy and the bearings are crap replace before you leave the store with some profiles or gt Al 3pcs.
