Avalanche Sport rider review

Sep 2025 · Ezrathesenda

I have had this bike for coming up 5 years in an xs frame size. The fit is very comfy and easy to ride with. The top tube head angle is nice for a mix

Highs
  • The weight is nice, easy to jump with. Fit me for 4 years but now need a large frame bike because xs is to small for 6ft 1.

Lows
  • The grips wear easily and the 2x9 system is OK but for the price some could expect 1x??
