    Date Reviewed: June 9, 2003
    Duration Product Used:2 Years
    Price Paid: $450.00
    Purchased At:Bayview Cycle
    Strengths:The cheap SYNC shocks are excellent for easing all sorts of bumps - even offroad! Shifting is excellent and well as braking speed.
    Weaknesses:Heavy. But it is one of the lightest steel frames on the market. The shifting on this bike is ok, but forget serious offroading - the front derailluer jams and cant handle the demand.
    Similar Products Used:'93 Kuwahara, '98 OFFROAD
    Bike Setup:00' Trek 820
    SYNC shocks
    Bontrger RE-1 SPD Pedals
    Altus Rear Derailleur
    SIS Front Derailleur
    Bottom Line:A great bike with excellent shocks for city and offroad use. However, if you plan to do some harder offroading trails with steep inclines, then you can forget using the front derailleur. Also, if your a bit more serious than a weekend rider, you're definately better off with a lighter bike.

    Date Reviewed: January 19, 2000
    Favorite Trail:China Camp
    Duration Product Used:6 months
    Strengths:Solid Frame, Good brakes, quality upgradable components, Sync Fork is plush, cheap
    Weaknesses:Heavy!!!Not great feel when using components(shifting with the pods feels like you are physically pulling the chain off the cassette)21 speeds is too few. Painfull off road, especially tight fast singletrack.
    Similar Products Used:Trek 820AL, Fisher Marlin
    Bike Setup:Upgraded Bar to Coda Performance, Icon Sterling Stem, Fatty serfas saddle, alivio rear derealleur
    Bottom Line:Great bike for smoothing the bumps around town. I live in a hilly area, so I would be happier if it was lighter, but what are you going to get for three hundred bucks. Light off road only!

    Date Reviewed: August 6, 1999
    Favorite Trail:
    Any
    Duration Product Used:
    less than 1 month
    Strengths:
    It has a front suspension that other bikes in this price range do not. It rides smoothly and is pretty light. Looks cool.
    Weaknesses:
    No bar extensions unless you add them.
    Similar Products Used:
    None
    Bike Setup:
    00' Trek 820
    SYNC front suspension
    Rapid-fire shifters
    21 spd
    Bottom Line:I love this bike. It's a big step up from my Huffy and is well worth the money. The colors (silver, red, black) look cool too. I looked at many bikes from the $200-$300 range and this one was by far the best for the money and it has a lifetime frame guarentee too!
