Submitted by Random a Weekend Warrior from Houston, TX, USA
Date Reviewed: August 17, 2004
Favorite Trail:Local Dirt
Duration Product Used:More than 3 years
Price Paid: $400.00
Strengths:Strong chromoly frame! Wide enough rear for larger aftermarket axel. Great frame to build off of with aftermarket parts. Strong original fork. Looks good enough to thrash!
Weaknesses:None? The parts that weren't so great you would always replace on ANY bike.
Similar Products Used:Trek SubVert 3.0 converted to full street w/ aftermarket parts.
Bike Setup:Too many mods to name. Everything fits frame well and frame is beefy enough to last a while. Several wrecks 5-8 foot drops onto flat, frame does what it's asked to do.
Bottom Line:If you have already bought this bike and are thinking of upgrading...don't! It's a VERY good platform to build off of!
