Date Reviewed: September 24, 2006 | | Duration Product Used: | 3 months | | Purchased At: | 100 aud | | Strengths: | Very nimble, light (for cro mo), It's an old school GT. | | Weaknesses: | Nothing except it's age. | | Similar Products Used: | All kinds of XC hard tails and FS bikes. Steel and aluminimum. | | Bike Setup: | Converted to SS with a surly singulator. XTR modified cranks, Avid SD;s. A mix os good light dependable parts. Original rigid forks. | | Bottom Line: | I think it's a 95-96 Borrego, purchased as a baby seat bike. I soon realized it was wated with this task. This bike is one of the most fun bikes to ride I have ever riden. (If you call riding fast flowing, smooth, twisty single track fun). The handling is razor sharp, without being nervous. Feels light under you, and realy responsive.
