The best boot ever and i explain why
Review of Adidas Predator Precision by
techibop
Advantages: Briliant boot
Disadvantages: some say life is too short
...March and with help from leading football star Joe Cole, have made a boot that will make a big difference to your game by improving
1: The amount of curl swerve and power.
2:The amount of grip in any pitch conditions.
3:Your ability to turn and accelerate quickly.
4:The stability offered by the boot.
5:The comfort of the boot.
HOW DOES THE BOOT IMPROVE ASPECTS OF YOUR GAME?
CURL, SWERVE, AND POWER
The boot features “Predator” technology on the upper of the boot. This Predator technology has evolved through the many different boots launched by Adidas, the first in 1994 but now in 2000 it the predator vamps are even more refined and better positioned.
Predator technology allows the player to but more swerve, power and curl onto the ball. This is done by placing rubber vamps along the five metatarsals of the foot...

Review of Adidas Predator Precision by
lavvy
Advantages:
Disadvantages:
...i must say that i spent a lot of money on buying a pair of predators and was very disappointed of the product. after paying a large amount of money on them, i did not expect them to start splitting after only playing in them 5 times. the studs also started to come off, and because they were blades, there are no replacements to put them on there. i was extremely annoyed, and i would suggest that if you are contemplating buying predators, think very hard. they are extremely nice to look at and kick with, but they are terrible to last....

A good buy if you can still find them
Review of Trek 6000 MTB by
Pritch
Advantages: Lightweight, Good componentry, Reliable
Disadvantages: A little front-heavy
...The Trek 6000 is part of Trek's year 2000 range, and as such is still selling in the shops now, often at a knockdown price. I managed to find mine in a sale close to the end of 2000 at £500, dropped from £625.
For your money, you get an Aluminium hardtail frame, In-Sync forks, Dia Compe brakes, a chainset which is half LX half LX Deore and a smattering of Bontrager components for various other things.
The frame, being an aluminium hardtail (no suspension) is nice and light and is forgiving enough to take some of the sting out of the trail. The only real criticisms here are fairly minor, there's no rear disc brake mount and on the smaller frames, it can be difficult to use a water bottle as the bottle mount is a little too far up the downtube.
The In-Sync forks are OK. There's a few inches of useable travel, they don't bounce around...
