661 661 Full Comp

Advantages: Go fast up hill and even faster down
Disadvantages: Can feel abit clunky

...Specialized Epic Comp 2007. This bike is owned by my husband, and I recently trialled it as I was upgrading from a Specialized FSR Comp 2006. From reading reviews about this bike it is marketed as a XC race bike, and could be a bit twitchy on the downhill’s. Also knowing the people that I know that ride them they are all very fast and technically competent riders, so when looking into buying this bike I assumed that it would be too difficult for me to ride and that a stumpjumper would be suited to me.

They wear out very quickly, especially at the front and are not very comfortable .I personally can think of better ways to spend £120, so should you. I would recommend a pair such as the nike aoir reckononing III Boycott these trainers -DON'T BUY THEM... Read review
