Pros: Sturdy, handsome frame. Disc brakes, not too heavy, $350 at a local bike store.
Cons: Cheapo wheels, cheapo(but satisfactory for the price) fork. Cheapo pedals, all of the nubs on the plastic have snapped off already!
Time Used: 3 Months
Comments: I weigh 225 lbs. and ride light trails and bronx streets. This bike is perfect for both. No fancy parts to catch a thieves eye, light enough to carry up the stairs, tough and fast enough for the trails in Van Cortlandt park. Replace the pedals asap, and go easy on the rims, and if your a fatty like me, adjust the fork so you dont bottom out, and this bike is a gem. cheap, and a frame worth upgrading.

Pros: This is a good solid bike for easy trail riding, and getting around town. The front suspension does a good job of smoothing out small bumps.
Cons: Don't expect to do any hucking on this bike. The brakes are a bit weak.
Time Used: More than 2 years
Comments: Really good bike for a beginner looking to ride some easy trails.
