Beast?
« on: August 21, 2003, 08:17:43 am »
I am rather ignorant with these bikes and would appreciate some feedback.  I ride a Santa Cruz Cameleon (hardtail) and am looking to get into a lightweight versitile dual suspension.  I am by no means a pro rider, but I like to have fun in all conditions.  www.reddingmountainbiking.com/classified.html
has the bike I am considering.  It seems to fit me well (I am 6'4"- 170lbs) and the price is right.  Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks

its a 1996 "world cup" strut type bike.A true xc fs bike.My opinion is that if you want a fs xc bike these are hard to beat,and it has some nice stuff on it,ie stratos shock and avid brakes.Check the frame carefully for cracks Well "used" models can crack around the rear pivot and up around the head tube.It looks a nice example tho
