| Duration Product Used: | 3 months |
| Price Paid: | $1600 |
| Purchased At: | Mary's Mountain Cycle |
| Strengths: | Good price, Good components |
| Weaknesses: | Rims are a bit weak, stock rear spring is a bit light |
| Similar Products Tried: | Kona Blast, Kona Stuff |
| Bike Setup: | Stock |
| Bottom Line: | I bought the bike because i was moving more towards downhill riding. Its definately a solid bike for the price, and is comes with great components (hydro discs would be better but hey) The stock rear spring was a bit light (400lb??) so it was upgraded to a 700 and now the bike feels more balanced. I havent noticed any problems with the fork yet, but a dual crown would make this bike rock. |
