Can't kill it
No bikey-techy guys hovering over your shoulder at Toys-Are-Us making you feel guilty for buying a bottom-end bike.
| | Weaknesses: | Heavy as s--t: 40 lbs
No-name parts
Huffy-type rear deraileur | | Similar Products Used: | None | | Bike Setup: | Stock with a few minor add-ons | | Bottom Line: | Look, it costs $160...but if you don't have the money for a good bike WTF? Great bike for a larger rider as it's build like a rhino (100 % hi-ten). I've put approx 2000 street miles on it and believe me, it's great for building up the thigh and calve muscles.
I also crashed it hard, running off the road and into a mud hole at 20 MPH. The bike landed 15 feet further than I did! I suffered a type-3 shoulder seperation and 2 broken ribs, but the bike was ready to ride again with NO repairs needed. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

I purchased this bike a couple of months ago when I was just getting into mountain biking. Just let me say three words Piece of shit this bike blows by any standards. the first time I rode it at Coopers Rock State Park (excellent single track) my seat broke off my shimano V brakes were destroyed and the front Crankset were so loose i could move them back and forth. Please if you are going to do any type of serious riding buy a good bike. I am now considering buying a Trek Y3 or 7000 any suggestions? let me know. | Overall Rating: |
