Submitted by Morgan a Weekend Warrior from Edmonton AB Canada
Date Reviewed: January 21, 2002
Favorite Trail:Limberlost Trails Tucson AZ
Duration Product Used:6 months
Price Paid: $600.00
Purchased At:United Cycle
Strengths:Super Stiff Frame... thick full cromo tubing.
Tubular 3 peice profile type cranks (Think there Bontrager).
I love the 2 peice stock handle bars. extremely strong Bontrager freewheel, Ive slammed it hard on concrete and its still not bent. High quality sealed Hubs on wicked alex triple wall rims with 13 guage spokes.
Weaknesses:Comes with tektros 990 type brakes (youll need to upgrade the brake pads) the brake cable constantly taps the lower portion of the frame. (just put some type of pad there, It will shut it up. the maxxis holy roller tires, There good but I like smoother street tires
Similar Products Used:Standard STA,
Bike Setup:pretty much stock with the exeption of kool stop brake pads, and primo the wall tires, I also have some basic wammy bars, not sure if I want to install them though.
Bottom Line:Great bike, fix the brake cable problem by tightening the brake springs, good street/dirt frame, seat hurts the knees. But if you by a complete bike, be ready for at least some disapointment.
would recomend this product to any intermediate rider looking for a high strength upgrade.
