Submitted by Paul Heller a Cross-Country Rider from Lancaster,PA
Date Reviewed: May 26, 1999
Favorite Trail:
Death Sentence Trial,Chiqiues Rock State Park
Duration Product Used:
tested or demo'ed only
Strengths:
Small,light,Good wheels and tires, and absolutly perfect for MTB trials.Oh and nice setup with threaded stem and such.
Weaknesses:
handlebars are swep and to wide, component line a little to low.
Similar Products Used:
GT Pantera,Raleigh M80,Giant Warp DS1 and Rincon SE 98 model.
Bike Setup:
Has RST 380's and STX rear derailure
Bottom Line:Light and agile,the Durango puts out the great kind muneverablity you want,but a little bit to laid back for tuff stuff.Absolutly perfect for trials(did i mention that?)and good street rider.Havent seen it going any downhills yet but that will come as my friend gets used to his bike(he's a freestyler turned technical mountain biker).Handlebars are a little bit to wide for stock and the bike should be upgraded for best off road performance,but it is also good stock.Having a small frame is cool cause it make it lighter.It is worth about a 4.5 but Im gonna give it a 5 just for giggles.
Overall Rating:5
