from Jeff City, MO Date Reviewed: July 23, 2007 Strengths: Cool looking for such a cheap price. Weaknesses: Too weak. I bought a set of these to upgrade from v-brakes. Found a good price on a new set at a shop and they didn't even last 60 miles. I went out on three rides and PING-POP, the rim let loose of one spoke and then the rest followed. With the low number of spokes I had no chance. So I spent more money to get the wheel rebuilt and thought it was due to being an older rim or something like that. Well on my second ride out with them again, I lost the rear wheel. Spokes broke and I nearly killed myself. That was the end of them. Luckily the shop was cool and let me trade them in on a new set of rims. Wish me luck! Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: OT Duration Product Used: 1 Year Price Paid: $250.00 Purchased At: online auction Bike Setup: XC, weekend warrior. I don't jump or even bomb DH. I just like to ride the trails here in MO.
