Suddenly my steel.
Ventana marble peak review.
The x5 is so graceful at sucking up the bumps.
The bicycle may require minimal service adjustments without the need of replacing any parts.
I ve been looking at the new ventanas and fantasizing about having one my pal has a new x 5 but this marble peak just keeps on going up and over everything in it s path.
Some work has been done on the south marble trail near the coast rd but by the time you start to tan oaks overgroth makes it impassable it certainly be great if this area could be revamped as well as the strawberry valley to south fork.
The bicycle looks good may have minimal cosmetic only blemishes on the frame fork components parts and or accessories.
It climbs and corners like a hard tail yet feels more plush than the marble peak.
The frame is fairly light has excellent suspension action and is very simple and reliable i had an el habanero that i sent to ventana to get the bushings replaced for free and they called me to say that the frame was cracked.
That must have been 1993 94 and shortly afterwards my local shop owner got one of the first marble peak full suspension bikes into the country.
The trans red paint is awesome.
Even though the mp has 3 5 travel and the fuego has 2 8.

Ventana el ciclon review.
My mantis is faster on the smooth stuff but i can climb steep nasty things on the ventana that i never could on the mantis even though i m not nearly as conditioned.
I rode a marble peak for the last 2 years and the fuego blows it away.
I have spinal arthritis and my back feels much less strain than other fs bikes.
You point this critter and it goes.
Ventana marble peak fs mountain bike reviews.
It s hard to rationalize getting a new frame when this workhorse just keeps kicking ass.
For a sub 5 lb frame it is awesome.
It so great that the beginning work on the marble peak trail has been so successful and it looks like fun too.
This is my 98 marble peak in freeride mode.
