$1100.00 | | Purchased At: | Friend | | Strengths: | Really strong, can take anything. Awesome frame, pretty light setup, good parts for the price. | | Weaknesses: | The fork is a bit soft, but honestly you can still do some amazing stuff with it, only bad riders will blade the fork right? :P The front derailleur is crap, and the chain get stuck between it and the frame. just put a chain tentioner and it's all good. | | Similar Products Used: | Canondale f700 modified, Kona scrap, STP2, Norco 250cc | | Bike Setup: | Azonic hammer stem, Chubby bar, XT rear and front derailleur, Maxxis Holly tires, Blackspire duelly chainguard. | | Bottom Line: | Put a chain tentionner, change the front derailleur, if you adjust the rear one (Deore) it will do, even if I changed it anyway :P Strong as hell, good wheels, if you get a good deal on it, go for it! ...and the fork is not that bad. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

Date Reviewed: June 9, 2006 | | Favoriate Trail: | Mine? | | Duration Product Used: | 1 Year | | Purchased At: | $850 | | Strengths: | Great frame, Rockys are always amazing, the paint is too good to compare to anything else, nice and thick, and everything seems relatively solid, although I do only weigh 145 lbs. Strong wheels. | | Weaknesses: | Fork is annoying. Gets all sticky and doesn't want to move, and then as soon as I put some grease on the seals, it gets much better. The wheels seem heavy, though are pretty strong, the hubs are terrible, the bearings were already shot after about 6 months of riding with at least 2 cleanings every week. The brakes are ok, nothing fabulous, and the pedals are horrible. I rode this bike for 3 months and I had already broken one of the pedal axles. I replaced them with Azonics and the problem was solved. | | Similar Products Used: | No freeride hardtails previously, just an XC bike and a bmx. | | Bike Setup: | Stock except for Azonic pedals and lots of sets of new tubes. | | Bottom Line: | I am quite satisfied with this bike. Despite my grievances, this bike was responsible for creating my interest in the sport of downhill and freeride. I feel that this bike is extremely versatile and although there may be a few quirks, the bike will allow riders to experiment with all aspects of the more extreme side of the sport. | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |

$1200.00 | | Purchased At: | Excellence Sport | | Strengths: | Frame is strong, Brakes are good, tough rims, looks great | | Weaknesses: | The fork is really bad (its too soft) and i've got problems with the crankset... | | Similar Products Used: | Norco Tactik, Giant STP 2... | | Bike Setup: | stock but I'll change the fork | | Bottom Line: | Maybe too expensive but durable, don't buy this bike if you do 6 foot drops or more, if you do that, change the fork, its a peace of crap.
In conclusion, i say that its an excellent bike (if you change the ****** fork) | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |

$900.00 | | Purchased At: | Earls | | Strengths: | Beefy, balanced bike, fork isnt too bad. pretty good components. good brakes for mechanical. good on the jumps, and just around town freeriding. real thick rims and "Bling Bling" tires. | | Weaknesses: | fork could have been better, but like it said, its not bad. single speed maybe with a chain guide. nothing else really. | | Bike Setup: | stock, getting chain guide... | | Bottom Line: | Real good bike for the money. im enjoying it anyways. works for just about what ever you want it to, except it cant do everything a downhill bike can do. but its not made for that!!

$1050.00 | | Purchased At: | The Bike Shop | | Strengths: | Stout Frame with good price to quality ratio. Wheel better thatn rhyno lites but marginally heavier. 24speed is a lot more forgiving and less likely to hop after a smack to the derailer. Fork is awsome. | | Weaknesses: | The front derailer is a road bike looking part no good. Bling Bling tires are real heavy. | | Bike Setup: | stock | | Bottom Line: | good bang for the buck if you want a freeride hardtail. Its a decent street rig too. | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |
