Shimano M520 SPD Pedal 
Posted: 12/03/08
'GOOD BANG FOR THE BUCK'
Strengths:
Price point
Weaknesses:
A bit prone to mudding up
Overall:
Great as a 'value for money' pair of pedals. They've been used on various of my bikes and work well. I even have used them with snap-in reflectors on my tourer which is a plus.

RockShox Recon 351 Solo Air & Poploc 
Posted: 12/03/08
'MAKES A HUGE DIFFERENCE FROM OEM'
Strengths:
Poploc remote lock out. Solo Air easy to set up.
Weaknesses:
Drop outs are a bit 'mighty' which makes putting my bike on a roof rack a challenge. Getting the cap off the solo air can be tricky.
Overall:
Got a set of these of eBay from a bike shop at well below normal price. I've replaced the OEM SR Suntour shocks I had with these and it makes a huge difference. The ride is way better and more adjustable and remote lock out makes it easy to climb without any dipping. I think they're great!

Giant NRS 3 
Posted: 01/07/05
'GREAT BIKE, COMPONENTRY & PERFORMANCE A STEAL FOR UNDER £700'
Strengths:
Brakes, suspension and all round package
Weaknesses:
A bit heavy but perhaps that's just because I'm used to a rigid!
Overall:
Robust bike that seems at home on riugh courses as well as more technical fast ones.

Best bike purchase I've made in many a year!!
