$300.00 | | Purchased At: | Northtowne Cycling a | | Strengths: | Very Light. Brakes work good. Strong frame, very flickable. Comes with great Kenda tires. Reasonable price. | | Weaknesses: | Brakes work good at first, but once you bend the rim just a tad, they fade hardcore. Cranks are terrible. I've had mine for a little over a year, and it split where the built-in pinhead is. Wish the wheels were double-wall, not stock singles. | | Similar Products Used: | Specialized 415, Haro 540 Air, Mirraco Blend 3 | | Bike Setup: | Very nice bike. and i would recommend it for starters. Not well-built for the big guys, but it will last you a long time without having to replace anything. | | Bottom Line: | Great bike, but needs better aftermarket components. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

It feels like your in total control when your jumping on anything. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

$200.00 | | Purchased At: | Sports Authority | | Strengths: | The bike is decent for a beginner. It sucks balls after you learn the bunny hop because the rims bend, the grips wear down in a week if your lucky, its heavy as ballz. The stem and forks are decent because there non-threaded 1 1/8. The tires are nice, and pegs are fine. | | Weaknesses: | This bike is terrible, i wish i bought the performer. It is so heavy to learn bunny hops with. The seat sux, it has sucky padding so when u learn bar spins your knees get sore. The pedals are heavy, and grind down in no time, it has a 1- pc crank that snaps in no time. The sprocket is 3/32 so it bends after grinding on it. The rims are singlewalled. This bike over all sucks get a haro or something | | Similar Products Used: | Haro backtrail x4, much better, fit team complete. | | Bike Setup: | Compe 2003, shadow conspiracy stem, haro y-22 wheelset, fit sprocket on a redline monster 3-pc. | | Bottom Line: | Bike is horrible, buy the performer | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |
