Price Paid:  $1250.00 at Olympic Cycle Vernon

Favorite Ride:
Many

Bike Setup:
Also got a set of wider tires to change up for off-season or longer trail rides.

Summary:
2008 Caribou 2: This is my dream bike. Can't get enough of it. Purchased on sale and specs/components match the 09 model exactly except for seat and handle bar tape. Added carrier, fenders, clip on /combo pedals.

Strengths:
Shifting is close to perfect. Rear D smooth. Lightweight and sturdy. Love the ride. Great looking. Seems very well made.

Weaknesses:
Front D has taken some time to get working properly
