Specialized Evil Twin HC | | Bottom Line: | This is one of the smoothes bikes I've ever ridden. It is light enough for all types of terrain, yet so solid it can bomb downhill with the best of them. With the choice of running one or two rear shocks just expands the range that this bike can run in. | | Overall Rating: |
