Pros: this is the 06 stinky. truvativ (31.8) bar and stem very comfatable. outboard bearings on bb, fox dhx very tunable. low standover height, stiff frame. maxxis tires are great bottomless feel
Cons: kona jack pedals are just that...jack@*#% i could not maintain grip with vans on. but the sus of the bike did not require alot of grip except in the ruff stuff
Time Used: Less Than A Month
Comments: i was able to pedal up hill with no problem. the propedal valving on the dhx 3 is not tunable but does a great job. the marzzochi drop off triple is als tunable and obviosly better than last year. i will be changing to dee max ust rims and my easton flats and a single ring for dh...dvddobson@yahoo.com well worth the money

Time Used: More than 2 years

Submitted by TBD Freeride - 10/28/2003 3:44:56 PM
Pros: Great geometry for ridding stunt, jumps and downhill, not too bad to ride up.
Cons: Front fork not the best for transient response... the Jackshit pedals need to be upgraded tot he Primo... the rear shock needs rebound adjustment
Time Used: 1 Year
Comments: I've ridden this bike for the last year over just about every type of terrain and on any type of ride from huckin' to epic. The f/s gets long in the tooth on the long rides, but it just tags along for the ride. I have had to utilize the warranty for some specific component failures,but have had excellent support from both LBS and the factory.
