a CommuterDate Reviewed: May 1, 2012
Strengths: Good price, good performance with light to medium loadWeaknesses: Doesn't carry heavy load well.Bottom Line: Mine is an older model, so it may have improved since. At first, I used it as a commuter bike and it handled very well. When I tried to use it touring with a good load front and back, I was disapointed to feel a lot of speed wobble that made it even scary above 30 km/h.

a Road RacerDate Reviewed: April 1, 2010
Strengths: Solid frame and comfortable geometry.Weaknesses: Over sized gearing. I had to replace the middle and small chainrings because they were way too big for hauling heavy loads even up medium grades let alone the Rockies.Bottom Line: Completed my first cross-Canada tour with it. Once I had it set up right, it performed amazingly well. The only problem I had was the rear rim developed stress cracks at a few spoke holes. With the suspension seat post the ride was incredibly smooth. The frame held up perfectly under a large load (80 lbs or so).
I have also ridden a 300km Randonneur with it with no problem being in the saddle for 12 hours.
Favorite Ride: X-Canada tour 2004
Similar Products Used: I also owned a 2001 Devinci Silverstone racing bike.
Bike Setup: I set it up nearly identicle to my racing bike.

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 properlyBottom Line: 2008 Caribou 2: This is my dream bike. Can't get enough of it.

a CommuterDate Reviewed: July 1, 2009
Bottom Line: Great bike for commuting. Also good for short trips (less than 100 km).
SHimano XT deraillleur is very smooth. I"m surprised at the speed I can reach with this type of bike just a few km/hr less than my road bike (Argon 18)
I put regular pedals instead of clip-ons -- mistake.
Favorite Ride: Lake Champlain
Price Paid:
$1250.00
