sure there not outstanding, but are they reasonable?

does this answer my question……. 😯

I've had four- an F2 (first ever full sus) and three Dual's (two grey, one blue). All were great fun at the time, and not very heavy. Snapped the RST forks on the F2 mind!

Not a high-end brand, but ok in their time- do they still make bikes?

I had a dh/xc and cracked the carbon rear end(my fault)then a dh2 they both rode really well at the time,weird shock size only problem i guess!
Also had a easton elite hard tail which was nice and light and rode great,
this was all 10-11 years ago though.

I had an HT1 which cracked on a weld at the bottom bracket, A DH/XC which cracked a weld somewhere, a dual frame which has a suspicious crack in the paint at the head tube and a DH3 which I snapped.
This was from '97 to '04/05

Erm, I'd look for something else.

I thrashed an F2 (red with carbon swingarm) for nearly 5 years including multiple alpine trips with no problems, only swapped to an NRS for something lighter weight and longer ride friendly when the rear shock failed and the odd pushrod arrangement was impossible to replace.
