Hey there, Ive been thinking and realised I've made some pretty pointless topics since joining this forum, so i have decided to try and turn a new leaf! I have thought, the best way i could do this is make a review of my bike, very detailed too! My bike is a 2007 Monty 221 PR with the Scotchbrite finish, this is quite an advanced bike and i reckon this kind of shows in the price, at £950 new this isn't the cheapest bike on the market, but trust me its worth every penny. I am running a dual Magura HS33 setup (04's) and find it is perfect for what i need, this is with Koxx Green's, my rear rim was ground at one point but the grind has over-time "Died" so i am also using tar on it! My Maggie's are water bled and i find this makes the lever so responsive. So what other parts are you running i may hear you ask! Well, my forks are Onza Light guys and they have withstood everything i have thrown at them. Up Front I am using a Zhi stem with Monty bars, this gives the bike a nice balance between smoothness and responsiveness. All this is transfered to my Chrisholm front rim on Onza hub through a Zoo! headset. My cranks are Echo isis, joined by a SFK bottom bracket. On this i have a front tensile freewheel with a Kmc gold chain, thus transferring drive to my Try All rim built onto a Monty Quando hub! It has a 1000mm wheelbase, 362mm of that is the Chainstay length. This bike has a BB rise of 50mm and a head angle of about 72/73 degrees. This is a nice short bike for me, I am around 5 and a half feet tall. At roughly 9 and a half kilos this is the lightest bike i have ever owned, and the nicest, it feels as if i can throw myself up anything and everything on it! I have only been riding 5-6 months, and i don't get out too often but from my latest video (shown on Ross Macd's page) Most of you will see i have made good progress on this bike! I would recommend it to anyone who is starting out but only if you know you are going to try and stick it, as £950 is a lot too blow on a bike you wont use! But even if you aren't just starting out it is still a very good bike to own! Any questions, just ask. Thanks for listening to this, Jarvis
