$1100.00 | | Purchased At: | Grand Blanc Cyclery, MI | | Strengths: | Nice frame, decent shock, good component spec. | | Weaknesses: | None | | Similar Products Used: | None | | Bike Setup: | Lx componets, alex rims, "inside air" shock rebuild kit, eggbeater pedals, v brakes, rest is stock. | | Bottom Line: | I've rode the heck out of it for the last 10 years and still riding it. Bike shop told me the geometry wasn't conventional but works great for me, maybe a little scary down steep descents. I've ridden the mountains in virginia on hills not meant for hardtails and it held up fine. Taken a ton of abuse and still holding up fine. If I could find one my size and a decent price I'd buy another one even today. I love it, mine will probably retire with me as long as I can find parts for it. Well thats about it. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

$350.00 | | Purchased At: | Champion Bike(Orange Park Jax) | | Strengths: | Light, good looking, carbonfiber frame. | | Weaknesses: | None yet. | | Similar Products Used: | Upgraded from old Trek 7000. | | Bottom Line: | Great bike for 325 used from LBS. I looked everywhere for info on this carbon frame, trying to steer clear of a bum deal. I could only find a few reviews. Pro buddy put me at ease, said it was a good deal. I really have beat the browntrout out of this bike at quarry for a first ride. Took alot of skin off my shins/elbows/shoulders on rocks and roots. Remind me to adjust the pedals prior to riding trails out of my league next time. But the bike survived 5 or so tumbles without a scratch. If anyone knows anything about this bike please let me know. jasonandstaciew@aol.com Thanks | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |
