Submitted by Peter Moorman a Weekend Warrior from Brenham, Texass
Date Reviewed: July 22, 2003
Duration Product Used:More than 3 years
Purchased At:550
Strengths:Cheap
Weaknesses:Nothing, a little heavy.

Bottom Line:Took it on a 250 mile trip on the Colorado divide and it held up fine. I don't have clipless pedals with it but I held my own with all the other riders. It is the cheapest full suspension out there.

Submitted by Wayne Bengston a Weekend Warrior from Houston
Date Reviewed: April 22, 2003
Duration Product Used:1 Year
Price Paid: $330.00
Purchased At:ebay
Strengths:Full Suspension, Heavy Duty Frame, decent components. It's a 24 speed, not 21.
Weaknesses:wimpy fork, cheap tires.
Bike Setup:Gel comfort seat, Michelin WildGripper Rock Tires. Stock.
Bottom Line:This is my first full suspension mountain bike and I am pleased with it, considering what I paid for it. I'm really just using it as a city bike as I use it mainly for urban riding. I have done some light trail riding and it did great.

I upgraded the tires to Michelin WildGripper Rock tires and it makes for a perfect urban assult ride now.

I put some washers in the fork to give more preload since I'm a heavy rider at 240 Lbs so it will suffice, but if I start trail riding often, that and the BB will be the first things I change. Everything else is good enough for someone not to extreme.
