Owner Reviews

had this bike for 1 and a half years now, i got it for my 13th birthday last november. I've rode it to school every day for a few months now, used it for paper round for a month now, so its only really been in continous use for about 6 months now, because my dad didnt want it getting damaged even though i bought it. The only problem ive ever had with is that the seat comes loose so has to be tightened with a round ended alan key, and that only takes a minute. the suspension provides good travel, and the brakes are so good ive been over the handlebars when i pulled them too hard. I recently took it for a 25 mile ride and it out-performed every other bike that was with me. The gears are quick and resonsive, and never get jammed, the chain has come off less than 10 times in 18 months! On my model however, i do not have Suntour XCM, i have Suntour XC V2s , i dont know why, but i got the bike from halfords if that makes any sense (?). And...it looks mint. loads of my friends have complimented it for its looks, the blue and black finish doesnt really catch the eye, but when looking at it, it looks amazing.
