Good deal for a bike?
Right now I’m using a hardtail to go down my local mountain bike park, which is thrashing my bike and every time I get home I have a flat tire, most of the times on the rear. I was thinking a good full suspension mountain bike could fix this. I saw a few review for this bike (http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-ALUMINUM-DUAL-FULL-SUSPENSION-MOUNTAIN-BIKE-SHIMANO-/370427357247?pt=Mountain_Bikes&hash=item563f30e83f) and most people on other sites said it was a good deal. Now I won’t be entering any competitions yet, but I am starting to get more serious on my bike, would that be a good deal?
That’s a really good bike, it will handle most stuff thrown at it…as far as your rear tire popping that means there was something wrong with the wheel not the bike rear suspension is keep the rear wheel on the ground not take pressure off the wheel…I would guess you had the PSI to low, there was a sharp metal fragment in the wheel, or your rim tape was not working correctly.
now the only thing i don’t like about the bike is the rear shock is not rebound adjustable which helps out a lot with bouncing….but if your not serious on Competing this is a great bike for you..
another good option if you could ever find one in that range was the old Mongoose Team DH, as it has and adjustable rebound on the rear shock
