| Duration Product Used: | Less than 1 month |
| Price Paid: | $2600 |
| Purchased At: | cannondale store |
| Strengths: | you can pedal uphill like a cross country bike.. you can go down like a rocket |
| Weaknesses: | I think that is difficult find a weak point |

| Bottom Line: | Ihave pedal the perp2 '08 for 30 km in one cross country trail and I think "WOW!! I have 18kilo's bike and I go up.. its incredible!!" but when I put down the seat post for go down... I find the real pleasure ... this bike is great, the rear shock link work in the uphill like in the down hill is always soft, the rock is not a problem like a drop |
