Got The Talus 29 sport,

Just got home with the the Talus 29 Sport, Best bang for my Buck that I could find.

Took it out for about 10 miles. I like it. Only have the Hybrid 700c to compare too, but it seems to handle loose dirt, gravel, bumps, holes, roots, etc pretty darn good. This park is fairly flat,
the cable disc brakes seem to work good, Not sure If I really needed the hydraulic.
Shifts well, I have no complaints.

I am really pleased that I got this bike. I think its the motivation I needed to get some excercise.


Dave

Pictures or you never got a bike. Ride pictures are best. Congrats on making a solid choice.
