Date Reviewed: June 1, 2001 | | Duration Product Used: | 6 months | | Purchased At: | Buck's Bikes | | Strengths: | Same 7005 Aluminum frame as the Topangas and the Response D-back bikes, so this is a great starter bike. | | Weaknesses: | The fork bottoms easily under a 220lb person. | | Similar Products Used: | 2000 Sorrento | | Bike Setup: | Stock seat and seatpost and handlebar, everthing else is upgraded. I run a Sram 9.0SL drivetrain and a SID. | | Bottom Line: | The perfect mountian bike for the beginner on a budget. This frame is a serious mountain bike frame that can be upgraded as the wallet permits. The entry level components seem pretty good for those just starting out. I rode the Sram 3.0 drivetrain around for a little while before throwing the 9.0SL's on, and they worked real well. | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |
