What type of riding. It is a tough bike with good components for cheap. It was the only alternative for my current bike (2002 Roast). It is a good dirtjumper / freeride bike. Because of its geometry doing wheelies and wheelie drops is a breeze. The frame is excellent.
If you intend to do any xc have fun. It is a heavy bike and when you nail a super steep section you will tip backwards.
Otherwsie great bike
