Strengths:    The frame to start it built like a tank very strong but still really light easy to control in air and on the floor turning is amazing nice 8 inch travel great for dh and freeride

Weaknesses:    when u buy stock its heavy on the front end due to the forks and the stance snap and blow on the seals

Bottom Line:

Strengths:    Great bike, and it was affordable to me :-)

Weaknesses:    I blew the seals rigth away on the standart Manitou fork, so I changed the fork to a Junior T with xfirm springs, and it works great now.

I have changed to single speed in the front, and installed chainguide and so on. New grips on the handlebar, with locks, new tires too, the Tioga couldnt hold up.

It took some time to set up the Metel spring, but once its dialed in, it works well....ok also changed the spring to a 750.... I am only 80 kilos, but I jump long and sometimes I land hard :-)


Bottom Line:   
The bike is super, and handles well in on the ground and in the air. I have ridden it for about 6 months now, in Denmark, Sweden and France, and have changed some parts.

Its my first own real freeride/DH bike, and its great.

Its easy to handle, and I can definately recommend it to anyone.

The Hayes nine brakes are awesome !

You will need to change some of the parts, but you migth as well get used to that if you want to go downhilling......

Date Reviewed: November 3, 2007

Strengths:    Everything on the bike is brilliant and up for abuse except for the rims, tyres and front forks. The frame is so light! 3.5 kilos and so stiff. It is very stiff with 100mm bb and 165mm rear wheel spacing. the bike jumps, corners and holds lines very well. it pedals like a hardtail (not joking!).

Weaknesses:    forks!!!! I blew the air seals. i sent them back to crc and they changed them to coil (Hard) which made them more reliable. the rear shock does the job well but it isn't plush enough. the rims aren't great (sun singletrack). my first DH race on it and i buckled the rim.

Bottom Line:   
its a brilliant bike for starting off. when you get better you can build on the weaker parts for a dream bike. it's a bargain at €1100

Strengths:    Handles amazingly on corners and in the air, pretty light weight yet extremely strong, the 8' of rear travel is awsome, you can climb easy with the large rings.

Weaknesses:    the rear pivot point has come loose twice i dont no why, If you buy it stock you should put a better fork on it. Thats about it. Quite pricy.

Bottom Line:   
Awsome rig big beefy frame can take anything you throw at it its the kind of frame that you want to put custom parts on to suit your riding desires. Great for DH or Freeriding fast great handling on any terrian.
