i have one of these thats stock set up any reason i couldnt upgrade the brakes bang on some knobblies and change to a more offroad gear and use it as a mountain bike ? im presuming the frame/forks should be upto it as altho its a road commuter its made around an mtb set up (so is prob just an old cheapo mtb frameset i guess)
any thoughts

edit . this link has the frame angles ect (which i know naff all about ๐Ÿ˜‰

Should be alright for some light xc but I would try to avoid drops or launching off anything.
