from Wellington New ZealandDate Reviewed: October 20, 2010
Strengths: Build quality. Seriously solid frame. Good factory specs, the main reason I bought the bike, i tend to be fairly hard on my bikes and I have yet to break anything.
I do a fair bit of Downhill riding and it rides beautifully, handles reasonable sized jumps with no nasty surprises.
Perfect size/geometry setup for me (6", 100Kg)Weaknesses: its a bit heavy for the up hill sections :) otherwise I love everything about it.Bottom Line: Overall a fantastically built bike. Nicely spec'd components.
Based on a freeride frame, so can handle decent sized jumps but geometry may not suit some people. probably not ideal for lots of cross country riding but for your average weekend trail basher it is great.
value for money 10/10

Strengths: stiff,stong,takes good drops off big stairs at the college and uptown plaza... i think it was made perfectly for my big frame(6'1", 230lbs)Weaknesses: my chain poped a few months ago and snapped off..... i replaced it wit a sram 30$ 9 spd chain......still makes popping noise on power stroke???Bottom Line: this bike is perfect for jumpig off stuff and/or crashing.
i would change the pedals for more grip but whatever.. the stock is good for now.
