 Entry level price, great transition into adrenaline sportJul 25, 2008
By Christopher Y.
I purchased this bike for two hundred American at a sports specialty retailer, Sports Authority. For the relative low price, I got what I paid for. The bike was heavy at 43 lbs. The dual suspension was a very nice feature during downhill terrains and ramps. The mid section suspension also attempts to be adjustable to accommodate road and rough terrains. I got into a new sport with this bike and was able to learn very fast how equipment can cost more than a motorized version.
I took a spill a couple of months back that set my wallet back a few bucks. The rear rim had to be replaced along with two tire tubes, the rear derailleur, cable housing and cable, and a couple months of back recovery (totaling $90). I also purchased a pair of universal debris fenders for muddy downhill rides and rainy cross-country field trips.
There are a few upgrades that I would recommend for this product. (1) A Kevlar tube liner to protect the tire tube from being punctured by any thorns or nails ($18). (2) Debris fenders for the front and rear tires if applicable (muddy terrain) ($60). And most important of all, a helmet for off-road and long distance cycling.

 go figureFeb 28, 2011
By Dire
Got the bike ,shipping was good. Its very sharp looking. that about as far as i can go at this point.
The back wheel/ derailer is messed up. the front and back breaks for this bike are total garbage. After the wheels are installed regardless out how well you play with the brake cable the tires are rubbing hard to the point the wheels dont even move.
I currently have the bike at a repair shop as i couldnt get it working my self.
Nevermind i use to do this as a hobby 8 years ago. So i'm having new breaks and a new derailer put on. Next time i'll just buy locally
this bike will lastMay 03, 2012

I got this bike 5 years ago, and is still in working order. Before you get this bike, make sure you know you're going to use it often, or the brake lines will get sticky. This bike was intended to be in the rider heigth range of around 5'10" or else you would need to get a longer seat bar. I highly recommend getting Kenda Cross Plus tires for this bike for all purpose traction.
