$150.00 | | Purchased At: | TOY'S R US | | Strengths: | Great Frame, does well until it breaks, the back shock is nice and makes for a smoother ride | | Weaknesses: | For me the deraillers, the cables the grip shifters the brakes can be better. At times the back shock bounces a little to much and gets annoying on long rides. After four years all parts are worn down and need replacements | | Bottom Line: | I didn't replace any parts on the bike so maybe thats why i am not enjoying it as much anymore. After having the bike for at least 4 years its starting me looking for a replacement. If you are just looking for a comfortable bike that gets you from one place to another and through whatever this bike is great at a great price. I've put this bike through every kind of weather and held up fine. Went down a hill at 30 mph and went easily over the rocks 4 inches high with ease. Great bike, got good use out of it, just keep it tuned up and ready to go | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

Date Reviewed: April 30, 2002 | | Duration Product Used: | 2 Years | | Strengths: | the frame is, what we call, HOT!! It works well with impacts and unexpected sharp turns. | | Weaknesses: | perhaps the weakness of this bike is that of its parts aside from its body.that is if your going here there and every were at once | | Similar Products Used: | none | | Bike Setup: | the set up was not so hard, quit interesting actualy. | | Bottom Line: | Im a city rider,yeah that means geting cut off by taxis and the whole nine, but this babies no joke...it's taken me through the concrete jungle and back!! | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |

Callahan State Park (Framingham, MA) | | Duration Product Used: |
3 months | | Strengths: |
Great price ($150 at Toys'R'Us; bought on introductory sale at $100).
Fine selection of components for the money. | | Weaknesses: |
Total weight is 37-38 pounds.
Frame is on the small side, and Pacific supplied a too-short 10 seat post; should have 12 seat posts available for $4 plus S/H, about now, and we think 5'-10 folks like us will prefer that. | | Similar Products Used: |
Full-suspension at $150? We haven't found any others to try! | | Bike Setup: |
All stock components: Well-welded steel frame in nice bright blue w/yellow fork, front and rear elastomer shocks, 26 alloy rims and good tires, low-line 21-speed Shimano and GripShift, V-brakes, bar extenders, water bottle and cage, kickstand. Good gel seat, quick releases for seat and front wheel. | | Bottom Line: | We love the way its full-suspension soaks up roots and rocks without losing the trail.We and our friends have bought six of these, all of which remain in good condition. That's despite riding them down a railroad track -- on the ties. Toys'R'Us did not set them up as well as we wanted, but we and they quickly got all in order.If you're not shopping for extra features, this is a great value. | | Overall Rating: |
