Saffer Posted January 9, 2009 Share Hey fellow hubbers... I have a mate looking at purchasing a new toy. He has been looking at one of these, Any comments? Is it decent? anything better for the same money? Please assist as it is time he bought his own bike and stopped borrowing one... http://www.felt.co.za/q720.html Thanking you in advance.

markStockton Posted January 9, 2009 Share Looks like very good value. Might want to also look at the Mongoose Meteor Comp. Very similar spec (I think). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scoe Posted January 9, 2009 Share I've had a Q720 for the past year.. The '08 model. Its fantastic! No complaints. I tested the metore comp too. The brakes arent as good, and the geometry doesnt come close. The geometry on the felts is the best you will find in the class, about equal with the Meridas. The back wheel seems to be on a rail behind you, never slides out Tell him to get it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saffer Posted January 9, 2009 Share Awesome thanks Scoe. i have sent you reply to him. Legend. Now i am jealous... I got me an old Silverback Reno... Needs a bit of an upgrade... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jules Posted January 9, 2009 Share Looks like a very good price, especially if one considers what other importers (Raleigh) are doing. Could it be a bit outdated? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
