from Chattanooga, TN Date Reviewed: April 8, 2009 | | Favorite Trail: | Raccoon MTN | | Duration Product Used: | 3 months | | Price Paid: |
$1200.00 | | Purchased At: | Dick's Sporting Good | | Strengths: | 2009 model review.
Great geometry and killer parts group for 1200 dollars. Stiff/solid frame but great climber and amazing handling downhills. Reba SL fork. Paint job | | Weaknesses: | None to list | | Similar Products Used: | I currently run a 08 Mission 2 and have owned a bunch of 97-2001 homegrowns & 4 banger, 06 custom DB coil ex build, 04 Tomac Eli, and several other bikes | | Bike Setup: | Stock groupo(x7- x5)avid bb5, RockShox Reba SL, WTB speed disc rims and wtb prowler tires, added clipless pedals, switch to a shorter ea50 stem. | | Bottom Line: | This is my first 29er and I am in love all over again. This bike truly rocks and is really well built. I am used to running x9 or xt quality on my other bikes and I really ride this thing hard like I am still on my mission!! This x5 x7 components are really smooth/durable, and the Reba SL is a thing of beauty!!! SMOOTH as BUTTER. Great fork and a great bike for the money without a doubt. If you can't afford to go with the Overdrive Pro, don't forget the Overdrive, half the price with the same Diamondback quailtiy. If you want a 9sd drivetrain and good air fork and don't want to rob a bank, look no further than the glourious Overdrive Pro. The gold color is really really sexy looking. 5 stars for paint job, 5 stars for value at 1200 dollars!!!!! | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |
