    Submitted by Mike a Weekend Warrior from Kelowna, BC
    Date Reviewed: August 30, 2006
    Duration Product Used:1 Year
    Price Paid: $3000.00
    Strengths:Bike pops off of lips or over things very well. Linkage design works to enhance the ramp up characteristics of the rear shock making heavier landings feel like nothing.
    Weaknesses:Bearings wore out very quickly (and I live in a dry climate). Also not impressed with their warranty - 6 months on bearings and 1 year on the frame.
    Similar Products Used:RM7 (which broke, like Rm7's do)
    Bike Setup:Med frame, DHX 4 shock, BoxxerWC Fork, Hayes Mag brakes, Diablos Cranks (175mm), mrp guide.
    Bottom Line:Expensive bikes, but a unique ride. A little long for a free ride bike but some might really like this. Very stable at speed and in the air. A good all round bike for shuttle/resort riding.
