Submitted by Yan a Cross Country Rider from Midlands UK
Date Reviewed: November 25, 2000
Duration Product Used:1 Year
Price Paid: $300.00
Purchased At:maclaines cycout
Strengths:Beautifull. Elegant looks, light weight steel fuji tubing, sweet riding position. WOW! every thing
Weaknesses:Sugino chainset developed stress fractures very quickly
Similar Products Used:Saracen hardtrax, GT Zaskar
Bike Setup:Rapidfire, STX RC (upgraded from original ESP drivetrain in shop because I can't get used to gripshift and I know I can trust shimano) Nokian tyres (better grip than puerly hardpack Huchinson pythons which came originally) Club roost bars.
Bottom Line:Absolutely gorgeous to ride, excellent cornering. Fantastic black paintwork looked stealthy yet sporting. I miss it because some tramp nicked it about a year and a half ago. #@!*^ Git! (get a job, save up, and buy your own rather than just taking mine after I had spent time a money on it, you lazy goit!) Can I have it back please.
