Submitted by Mario Rossi a Weekend Warrior from Atlanta, GA, USA
Date Reviewed: April 24, 2002
Favorite Trail:Any
Duration Product Used:1 Year
Price Paid: $450.00
Purchased At:Local store
Strengths:Comfortable to ride, light enough, nice look, shift gears work fine.
Weaknesses:Pedal reflectors started falling one month after use.
Non-existant customer support (never got any feedback from my letter).
Similar Products Used:First mountain bike.
Bike Setup:Cateye Enduro computer, Trek head and tail lights, end bars.
Bottom Line:The bicycle is generally sturdy and yet comfortable to ride. The manual is superficial and does not cover maintenance in details.
Jamys should create or improve the customer service (this is costing the product some points).
Overall, it's a fair product for the money.
