With so many on offer these days, it is great to have a name you can trust. This item is certainly that and will be a perfect buy. The distributor have added some great touches and this equals great value.

Good Mountain Bike.
I bought the XR200 last year and I've put a few dozen miles on the bike, through moderately rough terrain and it's held up well. The rear suspension was a bit of overkill for me as I'm not riding rugged downhill slopes (yet) but I'd rather have it & not need it now than need it & not have it later. I like that the rear suspension's rigidity can be easily adjusted with the turn of a steel ring, that's prevented from slipping by another ring that sits behind it. I've never owned a bike with a disc brake so I find that pretty cool (the XR200 shown here has a front caliper brake however). I bought the bike in white resulting in more noticeable scratches, dings, dents & dirt but overall it's a good-looking bicycle. The gear shift is built into the grips, I've accidentally shifted while riding but that's hardly a design flaw, I just need to get accustomed to the bike. My only complaint is cosmetic, the welds aren't clean, they appear sloppy but I managed to carefully clean them up w/ a...

Looks nice, rides well, but heavy.
I took the bike for a 14 mile ride to hit some trails, as I just purchased it. Out of the box it weighed right around 42 lbs. I changed the pedals, added some toe clips, changed the seat and took off the kickstand, and it now weighs 37.6 lbs., still very heavy for steep inclines. I had trouble getting it to the top of each steep incline I encountered and I felt it to be slow in sandy and lose terrain (which lead me to change the tires, they are currently on order.) I am hoping this will bring down the weight by about 2-4 more pounds.
For easy trails this bike is fine. There are very few bikes you can buy with front shocks and a front disc brake for under $200 so this is a good choice for someone just starting to get into mountain biking but there are other options out there if you look around. I am already making plans to change the frame. Dual suspension bikes just seem to weigh a lot.
There is some assembly required, nothing too strenuous, I think I put mine...
Great Bike
This bike comes with some assembly required. if you know what you are doing it is not hard at all. if you don't know what you are doing it would be really easy to follow the instructions. There are some minor tune ups that will be needed after a few days of use just like most bikes. it is a little heavy but overall it has been a great bike that i am happy with.
