Submitted by Rodney D a weekend warrior from USA
Date Reviewed: August 19, 1998
Bottom Line:

I just purchased a 99 Outpost and it's great! A 100% aluminum body for less than $350. This bike performs great and is worth a look. The tires grip the turns and does great on climbs.(WTB Velociraptors) The Shimano rapid fire shifters a a blast to use.This bike is worth every penny and then some. Only upgrades need are RockShoxs.
Overall Rating:4
