Submitted by Logan a Cross Country Rider from Salem, Oregon United States

Date Reviewed: November 16, 2001

Strengths:    It's a good frame if your just starting out and is also good to upgrade. It came with quility shimano STX/RC rear deraler. RST 281 fork and good aluminum wheels.

Weaknesses:    It's heavy. Doesn't have very good componets (front deralers, brakes, stem and bars)

Bottom Line:   
If you want a cheap bike that is worthy to be raced, go with the Crest. It won't disapoint you.

Submitted by Anders a Cross-Country Rider from Visby

Date Reviewed: June 24, 1999

Strengths:    
Great components
Nice paintjob
Fine-handling
Nice price
Groovy paintjob


Weaknesses:    
No front suspension
Weighty


Bottom Line:   
This bike rocks pretty damn hard for the price. Relaxed and natural handling that eased me right back onto the single-track, even though I used to ride a full-susser (damn you, f___ing thieves!) I'm already feeling pretty confident doing some speed. I'll be adding a front shock a$ $oon a$...It's a real kick-ass bike at this price, I can't see any reason not to buy it if it fits your wallet. And if you're aiming for something more expensive... why not take this and buy some ______ (insert favourite beverage/hobby item) instead? I doubt that this bike will disappoint.
