from England Date Reviewed: September 24, 2007 Strengths: Amazing quality frame for price, nice and light and very stable. powerful v-brakes grippy tyres and very capable group set and an RST 191 fork which is surprisingly good. i've done 600 miles + in 6 months and nothing has gone wrong at all. Weaknesses: None, one thing i am slightly confused on though is that the '07 Aggressor should have rear disc mounts but mine does not. not bothered though because i've had no problem with the v-brakes. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Forest of Dean Duration Product Used: 6 months Price Paid: $200.00 Purchased At: Leisure Lakes Uk Similar Products Used: Apollo XC.26s (Very poor Bicycle) Bike Setup: Every thing is stock apart fom i changed the bar grips to ODI Yeti lock on's

from Scotland Date Reviewed: December 11, 2003 Strengths: Excellent light frame, V brakes. Mine also came with good quality metal pedals that stick to your shoes over rough ground. Weaknesses: I replaced the saddle stem with a sprung type as the ride can be a bit rough otherwise, I would also recommend upgrading to a better saddle. The handlebars are a bit dodgy but after fitting bar ends on I have to complaints.

from Portland, OR, USA Date Reviewed: July 7, 2003 Strengths: This bike is a great bargain for the money. The frame is strong but light. The V-type brakes are exceptional (I crashed doing an endo in the store). Weaknesses: The fork is crap right from the get-go. Start with upgrading that to something better than Walmart-grade. The drivetrain components work well from the start, but w/ all second-rate componentry it doesn't last-upgrade, upgrade, upgrade, but first upgrade the seat!

from groton Date Reviewed: September 30, 2002 Strengths: ummmmmmmm hmmmmmmmmm well maybe the tires if u are riding on the road or on packed dirt but hope there are no high speed fairly tight turns cuz this bike will dump you so fast you wont evan know what hapened, trust me i know from experiance. but in the bright side the fram is mad strog even though it weights a ton. Weaknesses: everything. do u want to know why the word "bob" was invented. well let me tell u why its because of these damm rock shocks jett [nothing against rock shock they do make some nice forks] this fork is a dizgrace to rock shock why on earth did they make this fork??? it even bobs when u r going on flat pavment [and i mean flat they just repaved my road. Well anyways if u upgrade everything on this bike it would probably make it like 15 pounds lighter and a nice freeride bike but as is it is trash. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Duration Product Used: 2 Years Purchased At: this is an update/more info Similar Products Used: treck,specialized Bike Setup: got new peadels, the rest is stock cuz im getting a trek 6700 soon [i hope]
