$2000.00 | | Strengths: | Burly. Best of everything. Loads of travel. Very stable and well balanced. | | Weaknesses: | none.... | | Similar Products Used: | cove peeler, brodie 9ball | | Bike Setup: | Saint hubs, cranks, der., brakes. 888r, vanilla RC, | | Bottom Line: | Can't beat it for all around bike. Great for the shore, and beauty for Whistler. Bang for the bike is good too. I got a smokin' deal on a barely broken in bike, so I am plenty happy. | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |

$3000.00 | | Purchased At: | Bow Cycle | | Strengths: | 8 inch hayes hydro, will stop you on a dime. 888 on the front...thats all you have to say, saint everything... | | Weaknesses: | The O rings on the 888 failed second ride out...No warranty on em'. But Bow Cycle kicks, and gave em to me for Cost. the fox pedal definitely isn't the end all of shocks, but it does reasonable well, and Bob only happens a little bit when you mash like a friggen mad man, | | Similar Products Used: | Brody Devo, Bullet, Stinky | | Bike Setup: | Factory | | Bottom Line: | Besides a few starting problems and being a little heavy, but what can you expect for 8 inches. This bike blows everything away, for the price better components than anything else out there. This bike rides anything you point it at, soaks up 8's and 10's like they were speed bumps. I love it. | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |
