Submitted by patman a Cross Country Rider from michigan
Date Reviewed: July 8, 2000
Favorite Trail:killington, island lake
Duration Product Used:More than 3 years
Strengths:this is one of the best designed hardtails ever made - bulletproof frame that is from 93' and still uses the 1 1/4" headtube
Weaknesses:none - once you have to convert the 1 1/4" headtube to 1 1/8" using a king devolution
Similar Products Used:92' cannondale m800, 93' cannondale m800, 94' cannondale m700
Bike Setup:valiant ceramic rims with king hubs, grafton cranks with speedplay clipless, matiou mars, syncros ti bb, xtr deraileurs and v-brakes, gripshift, use sx post, lp riser bar with raceface neck - king hs
Bottom Line:i will never get another bike unless this one gets stolen or breaks!!! i just did a $600 conversion to go to 1 1/8" threadless and should be good for a few years there. old school still rules and i wont touch it till it breaks!

Bottom Line:
Yeti has succeded in building one of the best hardtails of all time. To keep this short, I'll quote Yeti.... ..the ARC has the stiffness of aluminum, the compliant nature of steel, and the weight of titanium... The folks down in Durango tell no lies. It truly is a masterpiece.... Y E T I kicks ass...
Overall Rating:5
