The Good:
the bike is very light, strong and trickable( 28.5 pounds). the tires have amazing traction which gives good performance on the trails.
The Bad:
for pros, the bars could have been a bit wider and the gyro lead you to the loss of braking power. I took off my gyro after a little, and the brakes worked a lot better. then i had to lower my seat. I replaced my grips for the deity classics and they gave me more confidence on the trails.Also the fork, once i used it, was very loose
Overall Review: overall, the bike is great, i recommend it to anyone looking for a nice decent looking ride who is looking forward to a hard hitting dirt jumper. i recommend taking the gyro off because you get better braking power on the trails. This is my first dirt jump bike so i cant compare this to anything...Posted by JaKe TiLley on 1/17/2012 11:54 PM
The Good:
Rounded back for knee pleasure, deep sensibly sized hardware. Drop/rise. Low stack height. Looks fantastic. Very good weight (188g). DOES NOT SLIP.
The Bad:
Faceplate looks a little goofy. Two tiny cracks have formed in the faceplate after a year of pro-level abuse and hucking to flat.
Overall Review: Fantastic stem. It is an injustice that people recommend Straitline stems and not this overlooked beauty. Honestly the best stem out, as far as I'm concerned. My Straitline SSC just sits in my basement now.Posted by CR- on 4/30/2011 10:38 PM
The Good:
It works as a tire. The name is appropriate.
The Bad:
If you pinch flat you will have holes in the tire as well as the tube.
Overall Review: These guys make department store crap.Posted by w00dy on 3/24/2010 11:28 PM
The Good:
Great grip on the tarmac and good groomed dirt, well even some loose dirt too. My pump track is made up of mostly DG and these stick pretty good! I think what is good about these is that you can ride great street and then hit the dirt jumps and be confident of the grip.
The Bad:
nothing so far!
Overall Review: I would highly recommend these. 5 stars!Posted by EMC2 on 3/11/2010 8:59 PM
