Duration Product Used:
1 Year
Price Paid:
$900.00
Strengths:
The frame is solid
Weaknesses:
a lot, I dont even know where to start. I paid $900 for it, and I swear I spent another at least $500 fixing. The rear deraillers broke 2 times in a year, I had to get new tires, the fork got really loose, the LBS couldn't fix it so I had to send it to the factory (got it fixed for free though) Now my cranks been coming loose so badly - it comes loose once in 10 minutes. I think the fork's coming loose again now.
Similar Products Used:
Giant STP2
Bottom Line:
I was at first happy with this solid bike, but it breaks down really easily if you are one of those people who fall a lot, and fall every time you go riding. I think there is something wrong with the angles of the frame.

It's a good beginning bike, very good for the price, don't bother by norco sas or kona stuff for like 1200 CAD, cuz this bike is just as good for 1/3 of the price from second hand
