    Submitted by ??? a Downhiller from a place
    Date Reviewed: July 16, 2002
    Duration Product Used:Tested or demo'ed only
    Price Paid: $25.00
    Purchased At:rented
    Strengths:good riding hardtail that can handle to some degree the tougher/aggressive riding style(I ride XC and DH). Ok for the $$$.
    Weaknesses:needs better shocks and platform pedals, or you slip like mad. Shocks bottom out easily, would've rather had a full suspension, its not exactly the best hardtail ever made but its not too bad either.
    Bottom Line:decent. I would look around for a better ride though.

    Date Reviewed: April 6, 2002
    Duration Product Used:Less than 1 month
    Price Paid: $319.00
    Purchased At:Olympia cycle & ski
    Strengths:+The price!!!!
    +it's canadian!!!
    +This bike has an awesome look! the beefy frame make it look like it has some serious bite! but the lite aluminum frame make it an all around performer for the trails as for the streets.
    Weaknesses:-The sr suntour xcc is an average fork, great for light trails and bumpy streets but a definite upgrade is needed for hard trails and comp.
    -plastic pedals, should be upgraded before even leaving the dealer.
    Bike Setup:stock, except for permenent splash guards and metal pedals and semi slick tires for everday use
    Bottom Line:This bike has great workmanship(made in Canada), the price and value is almost unbeatable and newcomers(u.s) this bike would be a great way to distinct yourselves from all the other followers styling their new treks, giants...this is one bad-ass bike!
