Mountain Bike, Black

N/A

Good quality construction and reasonable price but the thing that lets it down for me is the non tapered head tube, this severely limits fork upgrades.

Nice bike, very easy to assemble. Shame that it has marks on the forks and frame. Disappointing when it's almost �500 worth of bike and isn't perfect when received, QC standards should be higher before boxing the product

Loving the bike. Great buy at this price. Of course, could be equipt with better things but you get what you paid for. Great full suspension entry-level bike!

I previously had the 520s which unfortunately got stolen, so I bought the newer 530. Positives: - the upgrade to hydraulic brakes is very nice, they feel much more responsive but I do complain about the travel, they only active near the end of a long press - Less points of failure, with only 1 main gear and 9 secondary gears it means there is less moving parts that could fail Negative: - overall cheaper, there is no indicator of what gear you are on, the previous model had numbers in a plastic housings - more gear wear in foreseeable future, with only 1 primary gear/sprocket if that gets damaged there is no back up and you have to replace it Overall it's a nice bike that rides great but is missing some features the previous model had. Not sure if its worth �500, I'd fork over the extra �200 to get the better version that is higher quality
