Strengths:
very good bike very good and strong
Weaknesses:
the crank arms are the weeknesses I already broke 1 but another thing that kind of blows is the suspension (forks) I replaced mine with Rockshox Judy XC AIR. another thing that sucks is the crank it comes with more of a road crank the chain rings are 48/38/28 so I replaced the crank with a truvativ five D that has 44/34/24 chainrings.
Similar Products Used:
some of the simailar products I have used are: Kona CiderCone, Kona Blast, Norco wolverine, Norco scrambler, Norco charger.
Bike Setup:
my bike setup is pretty good now I have nearly replaced the whole bike I now have the following: Truvativ Five D crank,Rockshox Judy XC AIR, VP clipless pedals, Kore Freeride handlebars, rhynolite rims, shimano deore hubs, axiom stem (bullet proof), SRAM 5.0 shifters and derailer, Voxom BMX seat, post moderne seatpost.
Bottom Line:
but yeah I relize I could have replaced the whole bike aready but I got the bike from my parents as a gift and I am only 15 but I love biking soi thats why I sup up my bike because I have great respect for it. as well I like to do alot of night riding.
