do not re-build this bike, just dont bother! Its a good bike to start with, all my m8s used to have X-rated, they did them up, got new bikes and never rode the x-rated again! Good pic though!

People fail to realise that not every single eff'ing biker HAS to have a mega expensive bike, I mean it aint a rule! If you're careful with ANY budget bike and understand the bike's limits (i.e not for serious dirt jumping etc), and you love biking, then what the hell does it matter?!

I like the bike, man.

retrobike007 replied... on 5 November 2009

Totally agree, everyone needs to start somewhere, at least the he is out riding. I know guys that have got £3000 bikes that just sit in the garge and collect dust, not been ridden in 2 years.

Consider yourself extremely lucky i am even leaving a comment oh do them pedals have reflectors on them..... kool and the ones on the wheels my opinion you could do with some new
Frame-Forks-Wheels-Cranks-Pedals-BB-Tyres+Tubes-Bars-Stem-Seatpost-Seat
The only thing you should keep from this if you really love it that much is the reflectors

im trying to ignore the fact its an apollo........ nope cant do that, can i ask WHYYYYYY????? couldnt you have saved up n got something better, this is jus apollo trying to be cool, and it fails miserably, heres what id upgrade on it though... id chuck this off a cliff or in a river and go to a decent bike shop and see what they got n saaaaave up though u could keep the tyres and reflectors off this, sorry for being reli mean but you bought an apollo so you deserve it in a light hearted joke kinda way good on ya for going the hardtail route though

baggins360's profile image

baggins360 said on 21 June 2009

i will say this
good points bad points.
the wheels dont brake to say there cheap just dont brake.
the front disc brake for a machanicle if set up propperly work really well.
now the downside.
i snapped 2 frames in the space of 3 months :P
the mech hangers snap constantly
the gears fuck up unless you change the deralure
and the bars bend if you jump owt over 10ft
but all in all i say for LIGHT andi mean LIGHT DJ/XC this bike will do you until your ready for a big toy :P
10 because it reminds me of the 6 teeth im missing ;)

no offence or anything here i had the slightly cheaper £40 model of that and the only difference i can spot from this angle is the front forks and disc brake on the front
still got the bog standard rear gear mech and v type brake
in other matter its a good bike to start off on as mine lasted a year urs probly last a bit longer

lol i started with this bike the front discks are shit. i got new one and new back one to then got a kona frame for it :D

DarkFilter replied... on 10 April 2010

Did you use the same frame to fit the Back disk brake or did you switch to the kona to fit the back disk brake. beacuse im in the situation of buying two disc brake wheels and needing to buy a disk brake for the back of the xrated 50. unless you can recomend me a frame for less thatn £80 because its the last of my budget
