"Although recent reviews have been fairly negative, our son is happy with his purchase. Nothing has broken off been left behind so far.
Although the bumph stated that is was lightweight, it didn't appear so.

He tells me it is noisy when going over a bump and then landing."

"this bike is not good, on day1 the forks became loose and wobbled all over the place.
The same day, the cap for the forks snapped in two, also the bike is too heavy to be a jump bike and makes terrible noises when it lands. NOT RECCOMENDED!!"

Cons: add a con
"The peddle bars that goes through the bike, broke after 4 days
Halfords did fix it with a Shimano full new set and fitted it promptly.
The rest of the bike is good, and my son loves it.
But, it shouldn't have broken so soon!
So I can't recommend this bike."

"This bike was brought for my 13 year old son and it has been nothing but trouble there is not 1 part that has'nt broken so far and its not even 6 months old we have returned it to halfords several time and repairs have been made but there are only so many times we can return the bike as we don't live near the store.
the bike has just broken yet again and i will not be happy until a new bike is offered.
regards
A very unimpressed mother
kelly"

Pros: tyres
Cons: brakes, suspension, seat, bottom bracket, weight, stem, everything!!!!
"This is by far the worst bike i have ever had. Suspension not good, Bottom bracket not good, Brakes not good, Stem not good, Seat very hard. I would seriously not purchase this bike, ALMOST EVERYTHING HAS BEEN REPLACED! IF YOU ARE GOING TO PURCHASE THIS BIKE TAKE OUT THE YEARLY WARRENTY AND REPAIRS OR ELSE IT WILL COST MORE THAN THE BIKE IS WORTH TO BE REPAIRED! This bike is also very heavy and is not suited for jumping. (I honestly dont have a clue why it is called a jump bike because when i do a jump everytime something brakes!!!!)"

Pros: good quality tires, forks were good (they have changed now)
Cons: cheap wheels, cheap rear mech, disc brake is weak, no disc brake on rear, bottom bracket has broken
"i bought this bike thinking it would be good with its chunky tires and its sturdy looks but i was wrong. i didint use it for dirt jumping or offroad use but maybe ride it "harder" than some other people. first of all, the rear mech wrapped itself around my back wheel taking some spokes with it...new rear mech and wheel needed. wheels arent very strong, mine buckled easily.
have had two of these bikes and would not buy another one or reccommend them to anyone.
the price may be "cheap" but this represents the bike....well worth spending a bit more"

Pros: great frame, nice chunky wheels
Cons: poor gear quality, uncomfortable seat, expensive for what it is, poorly made, bad brakes
"Bought this bike over half a year ago and have had no real problems. Gears are very poor however and do not shift in to the correct one. Only used it for general fitness riding and would definitly not reccomend it for jumps. My old 26" mission Reef*r was a far better bike even though it was a trials bike. Seat is uncomfortable and cogs are going rusty already even though it is stored in a gargae and wiped down after use. Bit of a waste of money as the brakes are shocking too!!"

Pros: chunky frane and forks
Cons: rust and crank set
"this is now my second review, last time i said the bike had gone rusty and the gears are faulty, now the derailier has snpped off so i have had to change it to a single speed bike, i have to buy a whole new crank, both brakes are rubbish, but on the good side the front forks are still awsome hopefully when i've spent money on the bike it will be mint. so far i've had to spent £110 on it so far, hopefully i wont have to spend more...."

Pros: frame and wheels
Cons: everything
"I bought the bike hoping for a quality jump bike but i was disappointed but the forks they bottom out on jumps and the crank set broke more than once and i ended up fitting the bike with single gear because the derailleur was to bouncy and made a lot off noise wen jumping and chipped the frame. so i do not recomend this bike for jumping more for a general use bike not jumping
the only good thing on the bike is the wheels and the frame"

Pros: strong wheels
"I bought this bike last year. I use it for dirt and street. The cranks have broke, the pedals got jammed in them, the bearings broke, the forks are chunky but broke, the bars bent, the disk brake is terrible, broke in the forst month, gears are really bad, kept braking and were not changing into the desired gear. Wheels are good/strong."
