Euro Braker Posted October 6, 2006 Report Share Posted October 6, 2006 My friend has 1 but he has 100mm forks that make the bike rise when you turn. The ride is wack, the cranks hit the floor when you turn, too twitchy and sooo wierd to ride. He has snapped 1 already, hes on his second and I find they are soooo hard to jump, its terrible to ride.One benifit, they wheely/manual easily.

CurtisRider Posted October 8, 2006 Report Share Posted October 8, 2006 yup its a cube stem40quid....effing good deal, worth it for the forks just get yaself a nice 24 frame (if the dawes geo is really that bad?) and you have a solid begginers bike that will last a few hefty landings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
