Pros: lots of features!disk brakes Looks good!not to bad ride.
Cons: Silverback = Bad and skew desighn!!
Time Used: Less Than A Month
Comments: Save your money, buy something ells! My first RENO had a skew frame! The peace of frame reaching from my pedals to my handlebar connection was welded slightly to the right. I noticed this after cycling for 20km. the cycle was leaning terribly to the left. I spend about half an hour looking for the problem then noticed the crooked frame. The Cycle shop where I bought this from immediately gave me a new cycle, cause the problem was clearly visible. Silverback themselves deny this!!! They say there is nothing wrong with it after admitting they have had complaints about their frames before! So I received my new Silverback RENO…..Believe it or not – this one had a skew saddle! The one side is about 5mm higher than the other! Riding round the block wouldn’t be a problem, but riding 80km is! I’m waiting for a replacement. The RENO 2010 has a lot of features and looks promising and good, BUT – DON’T WAIST YOUR MONEY!!!!! I’m switching back to my old GIANT!
