Tha bike also climes like a hard tail, and that is less energy wasted. I also like the price it did not put a big dent on my wallet. I recomend this bike to any hard core rider and weekend worrior. Itsnow a wall decoration along with my other busted parts. Tires need to be beefier.
Brakes are no good.
The components are worthy for trail abuse, except the brakes. Just bought this bike. I love it. I think it was the best bike for me in my price range. It's step-sister hardtail is the Bike of the year.
