“Had the carerra kraken (black)(18") about 2 years...”

★★★★★

written by on 26/12/2010

Had the carerra kraken (black)(18") about 2 years now,ive changed peddles and handle bar locking nut but this replacement was all my fault,never use high pressure hose to clean bike.other than that,ive used bike mainly off road single track and jumps included,as a budget bike its the best i think.the gears started to jump about 1 year into riding, had that sorted by local shop not halfords.i do not rate halfords service at all,though 1 older mech was clued up.love the gear range,will never go single speed!front sus is great too.its yet to be seen if frame holds out.im about 80 kg in weight and so far frame is good ie no cracks etc.ive done summer and winter riding in forest.to sum up,if your on a budget then the carrera offers alot of bike.everyone else i ride with have got 2k bikes etc but im well happy.:-)

Halfords service???????, I took my Carrera Kraken in for it`s free first service,and i asked them if they could look at the gears and set them again.When i got the bike home,the gears were a `joke`,the gears that were fine before going were much worse and the ones that were fine,were playing up,i took it back and said i wasnt going to pay for this service as the first free one had not solved the problem,second time round,the same happened again,with all respect to the people who clean halfords after closing,are they the ones setting the gears on these bikes.(in the past i have been a cleaner)I`ve now come on the net to find out how to set the gears myself,surely i can`t do much worse than the Mechs at halfords
