from Katy, Texas, US Date Reviewed: January 2, 2003 | | Favorite Trail: | OP Shunable City Park (i dont know how it is spelled, but it is in san antonio) | | Duration Product Used: | 2 Years | | Price Paid: |
$200.00 | | Purchased At: | Acme Bike Store which is my favorite in all of the Houston area | | Strengths: | Kind of strong, but not really | | Weaknesses: | Brakes dont work well after only a few rides, gears can get bent out of place easily so you cant ride until you get it fixed, handlebars are very hard to hold on to after about 20 minutes of riding, and this bike cant handle anything rougher than a two foot drop. | | Similar Products Used: | A Trek for one ride, and a Kona for another ride. Oh yeah, and a Huffy when I was maybe 8 years old. | | Bike Setup: | I am thinking about getting a Manitou or Rock Shox fork to replace the dreadful Diamondback fork that came with the bike. | | Bottom Line: | There are better choices. Alot better. About a billion better choices. This bike is good for inexpirenced beginers, but only until it gets worn out or broken. Never take this bike to anywhere even remotely dificult. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

$140.00 | | Purchased At: | Dick's Sporting goods | | Strengths: | Rugged frame, good price, good variety in sizes. | | Weaknesses: | Crankset is already broke (Rode 10 times) Pedal crank actually fell off while riding. Grips are hard to use when sweating. Shifting is loud and very inaccurate. | | Similar Products Used: | Huffy's | | Bike Setup: | Stock | | Bottom Line: | Don't buy this bike unless your very easy on them. I had a old huffy ten speed that was tougher then this bike. The seat moves from side to side no matter how tight the lock is. The grips become slick when sweaty. Crankset looks great but is obviously very weak. I'm 6'4" and 260#, and i got ten rides out of this bike before it's broke. It's in for repair, but it may as well be put to sleep for good. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

from Oriento, New Jerswy, USA Date Reviewed: October 25, 2000 | | Favorite Trail: | The Big Rabit | | Duration Product Used: | 1 Year | | Price Paid: |
$200.00 | | Strengths: | A strong frame, Great for road and small jumps | | Weaknesses: | Heavy, no suspension, Crappy Gear Shifts | | Similar Products Used: | Haro | | Bike Setup: | Stock | | Bottom Line: | This is a good bike for beginners who dont ride alot, but need it for streets, and getting places they still want to get it. It is also good for trails. People who intend to do lots of downhill and lots of off road, get something else, but for those of you who want a bike to go ride to the store, but is still good for trails, and has a nice paint job, this is a good bike for you. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |
