from Borders Scotland Date Reviewed: December 17, 2007 | | Favoriate Trail: | The Matador | | Duration Product Used: | 1 Year | | Purchased At: | Aire Valley Cycles | | Strengths: | As said in nearly every review, this bike is great bang for your buck. Great at pedalling,jumps all that shizzle. looks different to the usual suspects. | | Weaknesses: | As a learning curve I've just found out that the MRP chainguide doesn't work with the external BB found on the 06 ecd. Looks like I will need to find some brass to get an e13 | | Similar Products Used: | Orange 224 / Giant Glory Zero | | Bike Setup: | default. I changed the grips to Odi lock ons, handlebars are funn fatboy 1.5 riser - which I want to change to get the front a bit lower | | Bottom Line: | I love this bike, I've had no problems with it and would really recommend getting one if you're on a budget. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

from Torrance, CA Date Reviewed: July 19, 2006 | | Favoriate Trail: | Westridge | | Duration Product Used: | 3 months | | Price Paid: |
$3300.00 | | Purchased At: | Mongoose Tribe | | Strengths: | Turns, turns, turns, turns, then pedals, pedals, pedals, pedals! Spec'd to race out of the box, light, and clean paint job. | | Weaknesses: | MRP Chainguide. E13 is the way to go. | | Similar Products Used: | Ironhorse SGS, Intense M3, Foes, Turner | | Bike Setup: | Stock, except for new A-Class Kaprun wheels, Xpedo pedals, Duva lock-on grips, Sunrace Ti-nitride cassette, and Nokian Gazzi-G DH tires | | Bottom Line: | This bike hands down is the best deal out there. Believe the hype. It sprints like a dream with very little pedal-bob, eats up all the big stuff at speed, and jumps very nimble. Unless someone is paying you to ride a $6000 over-hyped Foes or Intense, save your money, buy this true racer, and get yourself a second or third bike! | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |
