The GT Aggressor is an excellent bike for the money,you must understand it isnt a bike made for downhill or freeride its a recreational bike designed for riding forest tracks with minor bumps and shallow hollows the instruction manual that comes with the bike explains this with regards to the forks they are not designed for hardcore riders,the frame will take the punishment no probs but if you want to hammer the bike into doing all sorts then you will have to spend lots of money to upgrade, ie wheels, brakes, chain,cranks and the derailuer... Theres no point in that expense for this type of bike you're better buying the sort of bike that can take the punishment but beaware £1500 is the basic price for a basic do it all mountain bike, you will pay up to £6500 for a top of the range downhill bike, so that sort of puts into perspective just what you get for your money....It is an exceptional bike and if looked after it will last for years, GT has been making bikes for years and their reputation speaks for it's self....
