Anyone had problems with yours? Looking at buying one and was just wondering.

 

What type of riding are you planning to do? This bike would be my pick for MX, dunes, or freestyle jumping.

I took a friends (bone stock) out mountain trail/fireroad riding last weekend, and it wasn't that great. No low end power, and the suspension is set up for big hits on a groomed MX track, so the ride is rough. The bike does corner nicely, though.

I liked it better out in the open desert. It took the whoops like no other bike I have ever ridden. Jumping in the dunes was a blast. With some softer aftermarket suspension, it will be a great bike for the dunes. Riding desert cross-country, it was fun, like riding a Blaster.

Anyway, ride one if possible before you buy! A lot of people are buying these based on the hype, but they really are a somewhat specialized machine. If you are looking for a general purpose machine, I would say this isn't it.

Mechanically, my friends bike has had no problems, and it probably has 50 hrs on it.
